about

‘The second song with a question mark. Notice the wonderful guitar solo halfway this relaxed song. The lyrics deal with the fact that the belief in the soul and the belief in reincarnation both are too obvious examples of the greed of man. People always want more and though in their hearts they know they only live once, they do want a second life. Done at Ramirez shows a couple of times, with its most recent performance date being April 19, 2008.’

lyrics

Since birth is the start of things that cease to be
I guess there's no question about how our spirits will fly free
(But) the soul is the lie we've hung unto throughout history
For there's just no reason for it to exist basically

Chorus
Why should we live forever after we died
Apparently we're not satisfied with just one life
It must be the decline of the (all) human ways
Greed reaches beyond the grave

It's getting even more absurd this fake (false) realization
Some people are convinced they're part of reincarnation
It's an emotional shortage in a serious situation
For to be a lifeless body is our only destination

Chorus
