Slip Away

They slip away, everything in your hand Like water, like the wind, they slip away Your dreams, run as fast as quick sand Courage, strength, they’re all blown away And there you are, nothing to do or to say You’re still searching for a reason in your life Searching for a meaning in life every day Not knowing your purpose to live, to be alive And you wake up every morning ready to strive Strive for what you believe in and think is right Nearly dead, yet alive, somehow you’ll survive All birds for better or worse needs to take flight So open up your wings wide, look ahead and fly Reach for the top, higher, until you touch the sky
