After The Ending - John Frusciante

Pain runs through life

Pleasures' other side

Fear, some say, gives us such long lives

Leads us where we drive

Time will soon be born

It is starting at the dawn

And the world is moving towards

Things like opposites and wars

And one knows to hear birds sing

There was nothing 'til the beginning

And the water from my eyes

Is because I care who dies

Although death is transforming

There is nothing after the ending

Everything is eternal

Nothingness does not exist

No thing has ever become nothing

And nothing has never become something

What is has always been and will always be
