The Bridge

Who would exchange an earthly life for the dark of the unknown?
Apart from the beliefs, apart from the faith
I know death makes us equal and different at the same time
A bridge from an old wise man to a pure heart of a child

Time is passing by
What will you find beyond the world that you know?
Tears drop from your eyes
You realize time is movement of souls

And we know we all were born to die
Like some stars that still shine up the skies
Their lights diffuse beyond their deaths
(And it's not the end itself)
Somehow, their lights keeps them alive

A river needs to find the sea, but it goes on its own flow
It takes its own path, it takes its own time
What to say about its waters when they reach their goal?
Do they really die or become something new??
