Words and Music by Shimeon

If man was born to lie

Would we ever play the game

If man was born to die

Would we ever live again

Oh but I know

But I really wouldn’t let it show

Deep down I know

That we wouldn’t really last forever

If man was born to cry

Would we ever see again

If what you hold was mine

Would we ever give again

Oh but I know

But I really wouldn’t let it show

Deep down I know

That we wouldn’t really last forever

At the start we start in faith

And dreams we have begin to fade

If the mystery was mine

Would it ever be the same

Oh but I know

But I really wouldn’t let it show

Deep down I know

That we wouldn’t really last forever

He leads me to the righteous road

Where promises restore and heal my soul

If man was left to build

And reach our God in a different world

With nothing in disguise

How would we hide away the pain

Oh but I know

But I really wouldn’t let it show

Deep down I know

That we wouldn’t really last forever

At the end we have to face

The son of man in a different world

See them standing in the wait

No way to hide their deathless fate

(Alt: Line in line and left too late)

Oh but I know

But I really wouldn’t let it show

Deep down I know

That we wouldn’t really last forever
