Can a person truly know everything?

Can a person truly know everything? With the hands of god before their eyes Ignorant of the discomforts That will lead to their demise Live inside this cold, damp prison The end is certainly not nigh Struggles outside and struggle within One day like leaves in wind we’ll fly

I’m sure of what’s in front of me Though what’s behind me is uncertain One day I will escape this prison Till then I’ll peak behind the curtain

Can only see what’s in front of me I am scared though not alone Through the crackles and the whispers I hate this place, but it’s my dome I’ve no other option but to atone We share the world that which we cannot see And Mother Nature we resist her Won’t turn around scared of debris

Oh, Mother Nature how I miss her

I long for things like skies and trees One day, worry not we shall be free Till then confined within these walls Whether a lifetime or eternity Oh, guide us shadows, hear our calls
