Sixpence None The Richer - Meaningless lyrics

history merely repeats itself nothing in this world is truly new the sea churns as it feeds from the river at its mouth the wind blows across the land from north to south the laboring man spends his life getting nowhere meaningless it's all meaningless all my life and labor is foolish and now i don't have a reason anymore come now be merry drink your drink devour your feast don't stop to think tomorrow you could be gone far away so gather ye rosebuds while he may tomorrow you could like in a silent grave pawing the dust and awaiting the end of time fear your god this is all i know meaningless it's all meaningless all my life and labor is foolish and now i don't have a reason a reason to live anymore
