Words

A longing for bygone days

Oh, where hast Time flown to?

Of friends who are no longer here,

Of teachers whose antics are remembered,

Of great memories,

Of laughter and tears.

Such times cannot be compared

Oh how we can rewind the clock!

We linger on those thoughts
We wish Life would be so again
But then again
We can't ask for so much

Whatever Time we have left

We need to use wisely

Time and Tide wait for no one

Is it worth it to keep waiting?

Letting opportunities slip away?

Is it worth it?

I've had enough of cryin'

Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'

Hear me when I say

Gonna live my life everyday

I'm gonna touch the sky

And I spread these wings and fly

I ain't here to play

I'm gonna live my life everyday!

I believe we waste our time with petty things

Petty arguments

Petty talk

Petty larceny

Much more than that

Is it really worth the effort?

When you want to make great leaps?

Doesn't a change in stance and style seem necessary?

Would you then realize all your troubles are temporary?

I see the light

And I believe

Though the road is long

It will never end.

All we need is change

Faith

Trust

And a lot of willpower

To get to where we want to go.

Can you?
