What if this life’s the only one you’ll get
What if all your cards have been dealt
What if down the road in despair and regret
After all those doubts you felt
You realize that this IS the end.
No more ever after that time
No eternal place
No saving grace
No favored race
But in a shimmering light
On the horizon brewing bright
A peak in the distance
Approaching with fear
Grab that one chance
That a whole lifetime can wait
Forget the regrets
Work forward to mend
