Lyrics

[00:00.47] Where did we come from?
[00:03.92] Why are we here?
[00:06.32] Where do we go when we die?
[00:11.88] What lies beyond
[00:14.65] And what lay before?
[00:17.28] Is anything certain in life?
[00:22.14] They say, 'Life is too short,'
[00:25.52] 'The here and the now'
[00:28.42] And 'You're only given one shot'
[00:33.94] But could there be more,
[00:36.64] Have I lived before,
[00:39.57] Or could this be all that we've got?
[00:45.33] If I die tomorrow
[00:49.63] I'd be allright
[00:52.22] Because I believe
[00:55.25] That after we're gone
[00:59.55] The spirit carries on
[01:25.75] I used to be frightened of dying
[01:31.37] I used to think death was the end
[01:36.83] But that was before
[01:39.00] I'm not scared anymore
[01:42.13] I know that my soul will transcend
[01:47.71] I may never find all the answers
[01:53.27] I may never understand why
[01:58.53] I may never prove
[02:01.08] What I know to be true
[02:03.66] But I know that I still have to try
[02:10.27] If I die tomorrow
[02:14.68] I'd be allright
[02:17.05] Because I believe
[02:20.04] That after we're gone
[02:24.28] The spirit carries on
[02:32.53] 'Move on, be brave
[02:35.16] Don't weep at my grave
[02:38.29] Because I am no longer here
[02:43.75] But please never forget
[02:47.95] let your memory of me disappear'
[04:19.27] Safe in the light that surrounds me
[04:24.99] Free of the fear and the pain
[04:30.50] My questioning mind
[04:33.03] Has helped me to find
[04:35.66] The meaning in my life again
[04:39.91] Victoria's real
[04:43.80] I finally feel
[04:46.52] At peace with the girl in my dreams
[04:51.85] And now that I'm here
[04:54.43] It's perfectly clear
[04:57.26] I found out what all of this means
[05:02.06] If I die tomorrow
[05:07.16] I'd be allright
[05:09.54] Because I believe
[05:12.27] That after we're gone
[05:16.47] The spirit carries on
[05:36.21] carries on !
[05:53.59] carries on !!yeah!hohoho~
[06:23.17] carries on ~carry on!
