Lyrics

IF THE RACE IS OVER
Daniel Nahmod 02/23/06

What do I do if I'm not chasing anything
What do I do if I've got everything that I need
It's a question that no-one's prepared me to answer
Where do I go if I'm right where I'm s'posed to be
Where do I go if wherever I am I am home
It's a question I'm presently wanting to answer
If the usual way doesn't work for me now
That's a void I know nothing about

(chorus)
What if the race is over, and we all automatically win
What if the game is ended, long before it even begins
What if the test has been taken and we're all passing again and again
If the race is over... what then

What do I say if it's all perfect anyway
What do I say if I'm not here to change anyone
It's a question I truly don't know how to answer
How do I live if my life is eternity
How do I live if I'm no longer afraid to die
It's a mystery no-one can give me an answer
If the usual way doesn't work anymore
There's no map for what life has in store

(chorus)

What is the purpose of time here on earth
How do I now define my death and birth
For that matter, what is my life really worth in the end
What's mine to give and what's mine to receive
Whom do I worship, what do I believe
Seems every answer comes right back to me in the end

(chorus)

(last time tag)
If we're all born victorious
If the race is over
What then
