Dany Horovitz - Years Ahead

I've seen trouble I've seen hurricanes and fires
I've known loss, I've known lust, I've known desires
But never have I known destruction quite like you
Up ahead is something new
The river never flows up to the mountain peak
A lion's pride won't let him bow before the weak
But nature's never seen a force like this before
The mountain crumbles to the shore
And all at once I see a trillion years ahead
And everything that lays behind us
We're somewhere in between the middle and the end
And everything that once defined us
Means nothing now
And on the seas I've seen a ship as it was sailing
They were changing every plank along the way
It arrived as a completely different thing
Fully changed, and yet the same
What doesn't kill a man won't always make him stronger
What brings him to his knees won't always bring him death
I give my strength to you, I give my dying breath
Don't make me wait a moment longer
Cause all at once I see a trillion years ahead
And everything that lays behind us
We're somewhere in between the middle and the end
And everything that once defined us
Means nothing now
For all the plans we laid
Commitments we betrayed
We're often praying for redemption
But then you meet some kindred heart
Your plans are ripped apart
What was regret's no longer worth the mention
Cause all at once I see the world I want to see
After all this time in limbo
All at once I've got my perfect clarity
The stain's no longer on the window
All at once I see a trillion years ahead
And everything that lays behind us
We're somewhere in between the middle and the end
And everything that once defined us
Means nothing now
