A song perhaps about perpetual ignorance.
It is presented here with Band in a Box, Reaper, Cakewalk, and Ozone 11. Dave Bell of Blue Attitude played guitar, and I added bass and vocal.

We'll Never Know Why
Once when I was young I noticed there was time to spare.
I realize my youth is done, so I shoot Time a flare.
And yet it still flys right on by. We'll never know why.
As I aged I grew to care so little for so much,
and so much for so little. You held me in love's clutch.
There's all that time I let slip
by. We'll never know why.
If we concentrate upon the here and now,
the where and when would stand aside.
If we live without the if and how,
we wouldn't question why.
Time and space aren't real.
There's spaceless time of timeless space.
We know that time has no appeal
without some space for pace.
If all the rules of life apply, we'll never know why.
