The First Day Lyrics

What time is it when the clock strikes life?
Where's your pain, your passion, where's your strive?
Do the leaves crush beneath your feet? Do the trees begin to bud?
Ashes to ashes? dust to dust? flesh and bone and blood?

When do the lights come on? Have you ever watched the moon set?
Are we the master race, or simply held as pets?
Is north really north? When is the past?
Who really gets first place? Are we already last?

Who loved on the first day?
Who lied on the first day?
Who cried on the first day?
Who died on the first day?

Cut in half are the dreams within our minds?
Half is fine but where's the other side?
(What happened to the other side of my mind?
I've got to know? I've got to know?)
Was it there or just destroyed from sight?
What was left by the time let there be light?
(So many questions? Every time I get an answer I just see more questions?)

Who loved on the first day?
Who lied on the first day?
Who cried on the first day?
Who died on the first day?

Well the clock struck life so here we are?
First to last with no roll call?
(How am I supposed to find my place in this world when I'm not even sure who I really, really am?)
Daylight screams across the sky?
It's too bad we all must die?
(I don't want to die? At least I don't think so?)

Who loved on the first day?
Who lied on the first day?
Who cried on the first day?
Who died on the first day?
