Once upon a time...it seems so far away already There was another state of mind, a world more kind, a world less blind A world that I called mine, a childhood dream that died inside I can’t believe that it was me looking at the world with those bright eyes How can It be, barely 18 wide eyes closed, sore and world weary What can I believe? The question drops me to my knees But then I remember, my center, my passions, my power, my friends, my family The future threatens these, cause we're losing the battle, or so it seems
Well here’s hoping I’m wrong
As we struggle to our feet, grappling with the hell inside us The ship is sinking, the world is burning, some guy on stage is spilling his guts Some have grown numb, some full of fear, some disconnect and hold nothing dear How can I bring up this ship when I can’t even sort through my own shit? What are we to do? Efforts spread in all directions Now we're fighting ourselves, fighting the world, fighting the each other, fighting the power, fighting the fight itself...and still nothing changes, right? Am I right..
Well here’s hoping I’m wrong I’m wrong
I told you once there’s nothing out there for me Well here’s hoping I’m wrong I told you once the truth we’ll never see Well here’s hoping I’m wrong I told you once the winter never turns to spring Well here’s hoping I’m wrong I told you once I never cared about a thing I was wrong
