Everything has a beginning and an end

Celebrate change, accept impermanence

Liberate the tender loss of innocence

When you′ve given all you got

Spin the world, see where it stops

Venerate the subtle flaws of imperfection

Walk away from toxic unrequited obsession

And when you're stranded on the rocks

Spin the world, see where it stops

Oh, how a thousand years go flashing by

When you′re longing for the half of you that died

A piece you lost back in the fire

To the only one you ever let inside your heart

But remember that you were strangers at the start

'Cause in the end you'll be strangers when you part

My hands will shield your flame

My hands will shield your flame

My hands will shield your flame

My hands will shield your flame
