For the Rest of the Decade
Today again will pass us by
You only behold the sky
To catch a break, to touch that special flower
To ignore that hiding hand of hour
Though destiny's whisper is so unclear
There is nothing here to fear
Another year, another day
Another remnant of your soul, the price you pay
For living, for dying, this cycle so dull
For what purpose, a spirit so full?
We may lie to ourselves to get through daylight's task
To maintain a peace we might choose and wear a beautiful mask
One day you will not have to indulge in lies
Is when together to freedom our soul flies
Please don't let go of my hand
And I promise to help you understand
Althou
Have you ever felt the earth disintegrate
As it shattered, falling out beneath your feet?
Do roses melt away in your gaze
When laughter retreats to a better haze?
Endless is our bloodshed today
And with a steady look
The Father's warmth is not far
Though you have fought hard in a relentless war
This life is but forgotten
Hatred, brother against brother
They have been mistaken
The have only been Mistaken...
Hard work is rewarding
And success brings momentary relief
Though nothing is quite as dear
As a caring soul so near
When the feeling of isolation creeps
Remember what is true
You are not forsaken
You are not forsaken...
