ian freud - here, at the end of all things lyrics

one day, you will be at the end of all things
and it will be the smallest of things + the littlest things
moments that linger like ice on your finger
bright, vivid colours, and long summer days
that stretched into evening, where star+spangled waters
glistened and played
lovers who kissed, in long+hoped+for moments
friends who were lost, and hearts that were broken
this, then, is the story of life
your life – and your life alone in a cosmos of billions unknown
with the most powerful machines in human imagining
could not hope to detect even your presence
not even in the thinnest slice of eternity

so when history’s written, all that you’ve given
and all that you’ve taken
the lies you were fooled by, the mistakes that you made then
taken in total on a scale that is global
almost no+one will notice + not even the locals
for all is just dust, and dust is just atoms
and all that you are, and all that might happen
is all just a moment + a fragment + no matter the passion
everything passes
the masses move on
lessons are taken
but nothing is learned
the fields that you tended
will still end up burned
and all you can do is live in the moment
and not regret the time that you spent
people and places
faces and names
everything changes
but is somehow the same
and ever onward beats
the long, slow drum of the stars
who wait to claim you as one of their own
in the cold void they call home
here, at the end of all things
i’ve been ever so lonely
i’ve been ever so blue
(don’t you want me?)
