Perpetuation

Nothing true is ever true forever,
Nothing new is new more than a day.
If all we got was all we ever wanted,
Would all we ever wanted stay that way?

If now's the only moment that existed,
And then is just a memory or a dream,
If time is there for being, not for having,
Can anything more precious ever seem?

If everything results from innovation,
And change is how the present came to be
Why should we stop the world from moving forward
In the fear of things we can't foresee?

And, in the end, if nothing is eternal,
If everything recedes into the black,
Then isn't what we are far more important
Than all the things eventually we'll lack?

Nothing true is ever true forever,
Nothing new is new more than a day.
If all we'll have is all we ever wanted,
Why would we want it any other way?
