Fleeting Instant

I wake up

Put on my face

Identify

With the human race

I go to sleep

Take off my face

Somehow the light

Can't keep up the pace

Don't be so hard

On yourself

You've got so much

To pull off the shelf

Pack it away

Then pack it in

Life is too short

The air's getting thin

The dying moon compels the arrogant seas

The deathless 'me of me' caught up in the tease

You still inspire me though you hurt and deceive

And if you hear me now, awake in your sleep

Hallelujah, hallelujah

I go to sleep

Take off my face

Eyes open to the darkness

Identify...

The dying moon compels the arrogant seas

A fleeting instant I was led to believe

That what you give, so shall you receive

And if you hear me now, awake!
