fading in and out

Falling freely to the end
never a chance to see your feet
never afforded a chance to see
where you've been and where you'll be
the ultimate joke, the never ending story
but look within each moment and maybe you'll see
the truth of your reality
little stars fading in and out
every star a being, one second with life the next second without
on the cosmic pilgrimage, fading in and out
the ultimate joke, the never ending fight
where every moment failing to bring to light
the faces you've forgotten though try as you might
the pain of the longing just fading in and out
the pain too great you try to understand it
worlding, before you lies the truth you seek
with sightless eyes it watches you approach, as you fade in and out, in and out
