Before the ancient cultures the first birth of a sun 

Through decades generations and eons yet to come 

In a time when there was nothing there still existed time 

And when the human race is done it will leave us all behind 

The days we judge by hours the years we judge by days 

But looking at eternity there's so many different ways 

To some it means religion to some just an idea 

Some men can't see past today but to me it's coming clear 

[Chorus:] 

Alpha and omega except for eternity 

What you thought unreal has finally come to be 

Never say never because you might have to see 

Halfway to forever is where we will always be 

When you think in terms of what's to come and what has gone before 

Are you bound by your own lifetime or is there something more 

The only guarantee in life is a lifetime guarantee 

All the world's a stage an when the show's done we'll still be.... 

Just a tiny atom in a never ending sea 

The most a single life could ever be 

And when this world is gone for the worse or for the better 

We'll still be only halfway to forever 

[Solo: Dolliver] 

[Solo: Goldsmith] 

With a dream of immortality each man completes his tasks 

To conquer what is infinite he knows not what he asks 

To step across the border that defines the age of man 

Yet that is just a tiny grid in an endless master plan
