We're walking within a shadow. Where echoes of different times resound. Looking for memories to relive. In yesterdays that can't be found. . Through different eyes.
Its so cold in the shadow of distant lights. And the chilling wind slows our pace and tests our will. Still a voice whispers it will be over soon. And there we find the courage to climb the hill.
I know it's getting late. But I feel I need to explain. All the laughter and the lies. Can't stay the fear or hide the pain. . Somewhere along the way.
From sleeping visions. Daily were torn. In waking hours. Hopes our forlorn.. Is all we do and all we dream. Doomed to drown in a hopeless stream?. . Wishing life were made of lasting visions.
Looking out on a familiar scene. There's no agreement in what we see. Your perception lacks clarify. And my perspective is blinding me. . Side by side.
Just another face in the crowd. Wandering towards obscurity.. Driven by the dull desires. Of a worn out routine.. . Stagnant in the suffocating silence.
I remember the endless longing. That called inside of me,. From fountains of expression,. Trying to break free.. Nothing left to say. When the walls give way..
Under brooding skys and watchful eyes. On convulsive seas of false urgency. We walk empty corridors in vain.
Feeling the weight of unseen chains. This routine is growing thin. It's a narrow path that we walk. And the walls are closing in. Caving in. Is there room still for us to grow.
And here we are again the door is closed behind us. And the long road lies ahead. Where do we go from here. . It's time to make a change. Lets trace the problem to its source.
I saw you once again last night. Through a sea of sullen faces. Admiring eyes following. The path that the spotlight traces. . Eye to eye. And the miles still divide.
Through another late night confession. Told to a captive audience. And YOU listen with your ear to the door. Waiting for pearls of wisdom to fall. Like open secrets overheard.
I thought I'd reach the final stage. Time enough now to catch my breath. Holding on to each fleeting moment. Until the winds of change come blowing through.
I've watched in silence, without seeing. As a stranger within me grew. Detached and distanced from the day. While youth's precious years flew. . Chasing time through empty skies.
Today was the end of a dream. As I watched your shadow disappear. Another moment for the memory. As we lose another year. . Thought I heard You call my name.
Don't drink, don't smoke. I'll leave that up to you. Can't see things. From your point of view. My opinions are so strong,. and so are my words. Maybe someday you will learn.
