Funny how life works
Rife with sunny days
Stormy days
Lurking nights
And the weeks they pile on
Life is funny that way
~~
But I live one minute
Too far ahead
There are golden seconds
Preserved inside my head
Trapped in a cloak of
Immobolized time
When will the present
Ever be mine
~~
I'm stuck in the future tense
Tense and waiting
Hope debating
Where is my life
I'm living everyone else's time
There's nothing compensating
For my wasting soul
~~
And if I had a past
They'd be living it now
But my mind is stuck on
Forward bound
And my soul would have passed
Going round
Still my fate is sealed
My destiny unrevealed
~~
Hands bound with golden chains
Soul bound with empty pain
There's no rest in the current of time
But the current time
Can never be mine
~~
Ghosts move blindly through the weeks
They don't know it's what I seek
To be here and now
Is what I'm
Living in the future for
Eternity bowing my head
To the yet to be lived
~~
So free me brother
Take your knife
Cut loose my past and
I'll be free
To live life
The way it's meant to be...
