Ajalon The Illusion Of Permanence Lyrics

The Illusion Of Permanence Lyrics

Nothing lasts forever.

Entropy lurks like a wolf in the pasture.

We
cover his tracks with a coating of white wash.

But a new day reveals the
imminence of our demise. 



Do you worship the god of industrial
beauty?

Do you tremble in fear at the truth?

Look in the mirror. Do
you see wrinkles there?

Time is the hunter and it sees through your
mask.



Chorus

All flesh is like the grass and its beauty like
a flower

We live, we die and like dust our bones are scattered

The
face you see in the morning betrays you.. 

And once again the illusion of
permanence is shattered.



Consider all whove gone before.

Do
you think you can avoid your demise? 

In a moment, in a moment,

In
the blink of your eye, this will all be over!



You want to live
forever.

But you insist the solution be on your terms. 

You can
have a heavenly body

but the choice that you make is the choice that will
save or condemn you.



Look to the First and the Last for the
answer

See in His eyes and see eternity.

Follow His lead you will
never see darkness.

Give Him your love and receive eternal life.



Chorus



All it takes is your desire to fly away from what
awaits you here

Take His hand.

Call His name.

Tomorrow may
never arrive.

Surrender before its over!



Chorus
