Echoes of Life

Everything's gone out of control silently sliding away

Destiny's end is calling again the future was yesterday

Visions of light fade in my eyes energy falls from my hands

Faint in the night echoes of life drown in the day's demands

How did I get so stranded

Here I am built a house on the sand

And I know I've been slipping away too fast

Slipping away

I caught a glimmer of what could be

Another future a possibility

But just a blink and it was gone

And I was staring back at me

Forever dreaming of what to do

Never achieving I never see it through

Don't want to live like yesterday

This time my dreams are coming true

The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky

I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating

The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet

Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting

Lost in the safety of modern times

Nobody tells you to read between the lines

So you could stumble in the dark

Or you could open up your eyes

The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky

I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating

The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet

Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting

I'm tired of waiting

I caught a glimmer of what could be

Another future a new reality

I'm going to chase it through the night

I'm going to bring it back to me

The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky

I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating

The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet

Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting

I'm tired of waiting

Here I am built a house on the sand

And I know I've been slipping away too fast

Slipping away

Visions of light fade in my eyes energy falls from my hands

Faint in the night echoes of life drown in the day's demands

How can I stop them from slipping away
