Eclipse
PiA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that you touch
And all that you see
All that you taste
All you feel
And all that you love
And all that you hate
All you distrust
All you save
And all that you give
And all that you deal
And all that you buy
Beg, borrow or steal
And all you create
And all you destroy
And all that you do
And all that you say
And all that you eat
And everyone you meet (everyone you meet)
And all that you slight
And everyone you fight
And all that is now
And all that is gone
And all that's to come




And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon
