The Aftermath of Genesis

The aftermath of a beginning Something that had to happen Everywhere a new light shines A shadow must be cast Where a cold nothing once was What shall now become? A scary and uncertain future But it is ours, oh yes, it is ours The aftermath of genesis An epilogue that becomes a prologue The aftermath of genesis Calm storms to run amok The aftermath of genesis Nothing became all and will become something else again This we know to be the truth And the truth shall set us free In the aftermath The light was so bright The darkness so comforting The life so full and free And the love Oh the sprouting love It burned intensely Between the hearts of newborn children The aftermath of genesis An epilogue that becomes a prologue The aftermath of genesis Calm storms to run amok The aftermath of genesis Nothing became all and will become something else again This we know to be the truth And the truth shall set us free
