New Beginnings
Universal Poplab Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Inside and in life it's all just the same
Energy moving in intricate ways
Pumping through existence
Making everything go 'round

Every end is the beginning
Of a new beginning's
End is near a new beginning

And its end
Going on and on and on

Death's an unfortunate name
For a break
Life after life, there are
New lives to make
A never-ending lesson to make
Everything complete

Every end is the beginning
Of a new beginning's
End is near a new beginning

And its end
Going on and on and on...
