We're all sands in the hourglass / Yet we find a way to shine
Just need a chance to discover / All those pasts we've left behind
One man finds religion / One man'll take the reins
One man will search for the answer in the cold, cold dark of distant space
Find me the truth, boy / That's all I ask of you
Every path's gotta yes or no answer / Can't be that hard to do
To seek the ultimate answer / Is to seek eternal flame
Do you even know the question / 'Fore you wander out into the rain?
Every man can better the other / and every man will die the same
To discover the ultimate question is to be interred within the grave
Repeat refrain
Spring, summer, winter, and fall / Goes the lifetime of us all
We're just partitions of time
Like seconds or hours or days / Divided in so many ways
We're just partitions of time
Repeat and fade...
