Something now, is something that will always be
This is far beyond some earthbound human plan
In this universe we're merely specks of sand
Nothing more than man

Tell me - How did it come to this ?

What we do, may light an unexpected fuse
Every left or right may lead to consequences
If the butterfly should flap its wings
If an angel sings

Tell me - How did it come to this ?
Tell me - How did it come to this ?

Once a child, I tried to hold eternity
Take a leap of faith and never fear the fall
But as I floated to those distant shores
I would hit the wall

How could I believe...
There was something on the other side of it all
More than any man could truly understand
More than I could comprehend
So how did it come to this ?

Honestly, I never thought I'd seek adventure in my life
Never thought that I would walk so dark a road
In this universe we're merely specks of sand
Nothing more than man

Honestly, I never thought I'd read such judgement in my life
Never thought that I would fall upon this road
And if that butterfly should flap its wings
If an angel sings

So how did it come to this ?
How did it come to this ?
