Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Just like a flame

Life is ephemeral

Reality

Is only temporal

Dawn turns to dusk

It’s inescapable

Like a supernova

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Can you feel the winds of change?

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Do you see the sunset up ahead?

Just for a while

We’re in our element

But mighty or meek

Nothing is permanent

We share in a journey

Back to the firmament

Of a supernova

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Can you feel the winds of change?

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Do you see the sunset up ahead?

Not everything

Is written in stone

The future depends

On the seeds we choose to sow

Can we wake up

From the virtual dream

Before it’s too late

And stop the machine?

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Now can you feel the winds of change?

Goodbye Sweet Yesterday

Do you see the sunset up ahead

Or the rising sun instead?
