Lyrics
I am the world that hides the universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces is my one and only crime

I've lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images
The unborn child who never was conceived

When little worlds collide
I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell
And flashing memories
Are cast into the never ending well

The name that scorns the face
The child that never sees the cause of man
The deathly darkness that
Belies the face of those who never ran
You got believe it, I'm talking to you
Well, I know it's hard for you to know the reason why
And I know you'll understand when it's time to die
Don't believe the life you have will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on

I want you to listen, I'm trying to get through
Love has given life to you and now it's your concern
Unseen eye of inner life will make your soul return
Still, I look but not to touch
The seeds of life are sown
Curtain of the future falls
The secret stays unknown

Just remember love is life
And hate is living death
Treat your life for what its worth
And live for every breath
Looking back I've lived and learned
But now I'm wondering
Here, I wait and only guess
What this next life will bring

Ha ha

	Ok, I’m very knowledgable of hip-hop music, it’s probably my favorite genre. BUT I like MUSIC in general. I listen to everything from classical (beethoven, Olafur Arnalds, and Howard shore) to soul (Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder) to Pop (Mike Jack, Bruno Mars, Adele) to R&B (John Legend, Frank Ocean, Janet Jackson) But when it comes to Rock music I’m unsure on what bands/albums to listen to or where to even start (especially with the many different subgenres – hard/soft/alternative/punk/grunge/screamo/etc. I’ve always had a friendly acquaintance with Rock music. I listened to Linkin Park as a kid. And in high school I listened to some “indie/Alternative” rock songs like The Black Keys, Cage The Elephant, and Paramore. I really liked those songs but I never really kept up with their music and I feel like those bands are more “mainstream”.
