Beyond Our Reach Lyrics

Coming into a new century

A world that's changing so rapidly

Sometimes it scares me to think

If I slow down I might just sink

Put the petty problems aside

Come out in the open

Try not to hide

Behind the colors

The pride and the shame

Inside our shells

We're all the same

All the same

In the vast space of the unknown

Voids of dark matter

Answers not shown

We are grains of sand on an endless beach

So far beyond the ends we'll not reach

Mindless souls with the whole world to teach

Trying to touch just beyond our reach

The gods and devils by which we abide

Can be found deep down inside

So when you reach toward the heavens above

Know that true heaven is found in love

Innocent children learn from them well

They know not of death or money or hell

They know how to see the young in the old

Turn houses to castles and pennies to gold

Gold

In the vast space of the unknown

Voids of dark matter

Answers not shown

We are grains of sand on an endless beach

So far beyond the ends we'll not reach

Mindless souls with the whole world to teach

Trying to touch just beyond our reach
