Life: at its best, you are doing fine   But you're blind, it's china you hold   As it breaks, suddenly it's clear:   Beautiful but transitory      But we won't break easy   We won't give in to all unbearable pain   We'll pull through, we won't crack   We'll endure and survive      Oh, transitory   Pain is as life itself   Evanescent as it fades   Transitory!      Life: all you've got, all was swept away   Now you see what there is to miss   Suddenly you're stronger than you thought   As you know it's transitory      'Cause we won't break   Survival is all we've got and our unbearable grief   We'll hold on and won't crack   And we'll value all life      Oh, transitory   Pain is as life itself   Evanescent as it fades
