Riddle Lyrics - Headstone Epitaph

[Everyone of us, at one time or another, has surely wondered where we come from, where we are going and what is the sense of it all.] 

I know we've always been asking ourselves 

How do we hatch out of eggs or of shells? 

Me and the birds and the flowers and trees 

Out of the oceans it's hard to believe 

Where do we come from? Where will we go? 

This is the riddle we don?t know 

Riddles of descent and our mankind 

Answers come slowly to shatter our minds 

Where do we come from ? It isn't quite clear 

When did we first once appear? 

Might not be here 

If we continue the way that we choose 

We're not secure if we win or we lose 

The fire keeps burning inside of our heads 

Keeping us weighted like iron and lead 

Where do we come from? Where will we go? 

This is the riddle we don?t know 

Riddles of descent and our mankind 

Answers come slowly to shatter our minds 

Where do we come from? It isn't quite clear 

When did we first once appear? 

Might not be here 

So come on you people this is our chance 

Because we've had this success 

We hold the future in our hands 

To obtain this mighty progress 

Can we go on without a sorrow? 

For our life we beg, steal and borrow 

In a world that won't stop tommorrow, 

Filled with joy and restraint and horror 

Riddles of descent and our mankind 

Answers come slowly to shatter our minds 

Where do we come from? It isn't quite clear 

When did we first once appear? 

Might not be here 

Riddles of descent and our mankind 

Answers come slowly to shatter our minds 

Where do we come from? It isn't quite clear 

When did we first once appear? 

Might not be here
