Lyrics Live and Die on This Day - Helion Prime

Live and Die on This Day

4.5 billion years
Molding the perfect domain
Yet in the cosmic timeline
A few months the earth has remained
Seconds ago we arose as a race
What can we know of our destiny
Ancient giants of old
Last only days in the chain
Held on for millions of years
Still somehow they faded away
The truth that is staring us all in the face
Is knowledge that someday we too will die
Elements arose within a January storm
Spiraled in the spring time towards an avaricious hole
Solid rock and rubble battled gravity’s control
Through these eyes, we will see and know what it means
To live and die on this day
As a fleeting memory
So as we journey through the fray, though the fear remains
Open your mind
Look to the skies
Question this life
And rage towards the dying of the light
Summer solar systems merged and life began to frame
Autumn married light and water, carbon fueled the flame
Set the stage and wrote the rules for all who played the game
And in these winter days we’ll see and know what it means
To live and die on this day
As we mortals journey on
Lest we endure to stake our claim on our right to stay
Go now, live for the day
Don’t waste time, our lives won’t last the night
Your days though numbered are precious
And worth the fight, so hold on till the dawn
Within December days began the supersonic climb
Advance the mortal game and pass the grueling test of time
The final minutes of the year will catch us in our prime
What will the stroke of midnight bring
Does our fate remain
To live and die on this day
Evolutions failed design
So once more into the grey
We must fight to stay
Live and die on this day
Open your mind
