• A Matter of Time

You know me well, but I know I don’t belong here.
I've tried through time just to make my song clear.
But who am I without my reputation?
Can I stand up to my own expectations?
In a different world, in a different time,
I knew my purpose, I felt so alive,
Now I start once more, I have been reborn.
A flake in a flurry, a drop in a storm.
I’ve lost it all what long ago was mine.
The music speaks to me but what it’s saying I can’t decide.
Putting melody to rhyme.
Doesn’t make a difference down the line.
It’s just a matter of time.
My friends have gone in the opposite direction.
Try as I might, I avoid detection.
Is my choice right, or just a flight of fancy?
I know my past, it’s the future that I can’t see.
In a different world, in a different place.
I had America’s third most recognizable face.
And then suddenly, out of history,
I’m one in seven-billion and it terrifies me.
I’ve lost it all what long ago was mine.
The music speaks to me but what it’s saying I can’t decide.
And I’m looking for my sign.
And I’m hoping I will find it
In a matter of time.
And if I move on, and if I grow old
Will I end up penniless, alone in the cold?
Or will I find my path, will I find my spark
To illuminate me and get me out of the dark
I’ve lost it all what long ago was mine.
The music speaks to me but what it’s saying I can’t decide.
By the nickel, by the dime.
It’s a mountain I can climb.
It’s there for me to find,
It’s just a matter of time.
