lyrics

Where are you going?
Why are you leaving?
Why do we suffer?
What is the meaning?
How do we live by?
Who would you die for?
What do you cry for?
Is it all real?
Do we have free will?
What are the numbers?
What is your passion?
Why are you grateful?
What makes you happy?
What gives you courage?
What does your heart say?
Everything's a miracle

[Refrain]
Answer's in the book of life
Answer's in the book of life

[Verse 2]
Who are your neighbors?
What will your friend say?
Who is the kindest?
What makes you proudest?
What makes us good friends?
Why am I different?
Why do I struggle?
Why do I hurt me?
Everybody worries
Why do we promise?
What is existence?
Why does it matter?
Who should I stand by?
Seeds of the future
Rise of humanity
Everything is sacred

[Refrain]
Answer's in the book of life
Answer's in the book of life

[Verse 3]
Don't get excited
Be conscientious
Who do I run to?
What do I stand for?
Who should I play for?
What should I pay for?
What makes it all worthwhile?
How do I see?
How do I hear it?
How do I move it?
When I get near it
How do I get through it?
Everything's amazing
Everything is wonderful
Life's full of sadness
Love is the answer
