The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I come to you
I seek to find
What's the meaning of it all
I've travelled far
Through time, past stars
From eons past I heard you call
Birds of night in full flight, no time to cry out
Flash of light in the sky, see the phoenix fly
In God's name, we kill and maim those who are not the same
Liquid flames, reapers rain, falling from the sky
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines, even if the world is gone
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines, even if the world is gone
You come to me
Expect to see
Answers to all that you ask
It's not so plain
You ask in vain
Existence is its own reward
Birds of night in full flight, no time to cry out
Flash of light in the sky, see the phoenix fly
In God's name, we kill and maim those who are not the same
Liquid flames, reapers rain, falling from the sky
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone
Don't ask why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines bright, even if the world is gone
So don't ask why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone
