The Sands Of Time

[1st v:]

Who
But me
Can see....between

What is fantasy
And what is...
Reality

What you want
What you need
Gets caught up
In what you no longer
Care to see

What is gone
Is sometimes
What we long for

But then....
We realize
We are now
Not caring about anything else
Any more

[1st ch:]

Go
You want to go

It doesn't matter where
Probably
Been there
Before

The sands of time
Bring back
The steps
Once taken
Long ago

Repeating
What mistakes one made
Long ago....again like before

Again....still awake....such a long night
Correct the wrong
Try your best
To do what's right

Stare up
At the moon and stars that shine
Go ahead
Keep dreaming....and wishing
Never knowing still
What you truly call mine

[2nd v:]

The mind wanders
Going back and forth

To and from
Where do you go from here
What do you do
Can you bring closure
To what is held so dear

Falling....falling
Feels sometimes
Like you're falling
In slow motion

All because you wrap yourself up
In so....
So many emotions

Take a step forward
Go two steps back
Trying to find
Just what it is
That your life
Still lacks

Sometimes wanting it all
Just to end

But suddenly you fear
And do everything
That requires
Too much
To mend

But then you stop....

Finally you can now understand
You're not alone

There's another
Who knows the truth
Who found the key
To complete
The destiny

[2nd ch:]

Go
You want to go

It doesn't matter where
Probably
Been there
Before

The sands of time
Bring back
The steps
Once taken
Long ago

Repeating
What mistakes one made
Long ago....again like before

Again....still awake....such a long night
Correct the wrong
Try your best
To do what is right

Stare up
At the moon and stars that shine
Go ahead
Keep dreaming....wishing
Never knowing still
What you truly call mine

[close]

Through the sands of time
You find the treasure
Inside your heart
You hold the key
Unlock the truth
There you will find
Your destiny

In what you have
To what you hold
And....to what you now know
