Corrected Visionaries - What's It All About? Lyrics

The wisest man in this brutal land
Stumbles but he doesn't fall
On his dying day, he'll be heard to say
"I've learned nothing at all"

Oh, we're cutting through the forests
And we're clearing all the trees
But the shadows seem to linger
And they bring us to our knees

What's it all about? (It's a mystery)
What's it all about? (It's eternity)
We keep on groping, but I have no doubt
We'll never know, for sure, what it's all about

The average life is a two edged knife
Fortunes can change with the seasons
Dreams come true, yeah, and nightmares too
All with no rational reasons

We're caught up in our races
Trying to run before we walk
And we say we have the answers
But that's only idle talk

What's it all about? (It's a mystery)
What's it all about? (It's eternity)
We keep on groping, but I have no doubt
We'll never know, for sure, what it's all about

It's the sight you almost see
It's the sound you almost hear
It's all the things you want to be
And it's all the things you fear

What's it all about? (It's a mystery)
What's it all about? (It's eternity)
We keep on groping, but I have no doubt
We'll never know, for sure, what it's all about
