Eternity

Eternity We lose the grip then begin to double dip The heart is the fuel to add the fire with desire A sought after plan with a remedy in mind An excursion torn between the battle for good & evil Some are being caught up right in the middle Eternity my friend is a very long time we climb A passive orientation to those who once could see yet now their blind No one for certain sir wants to be left behind With chains on our feet people dance to the beat The heart is an opened door willing to explore A simple time with simple tastes getting caught up as before Nature beckons it's wallowing cry toward asunder Shaken by the wind we so often will pretend A free gift to those willing to accept it's message don't forget We pass through this life only once without a second chance One must be willing to take part in the dance In long lines vested through a variation in a dream People scream for attention within their ardent claims A challenge to be free is a question of time To think of this earthly bliss of a time well spent in thought We clap our hands into the wind that can't be bought As a tree grows it flows through a sorted peril Climb to the highest ring on a ladder amidst the chatter Look to the sun to help you get by never to a substance that will get you high You have a choice with eternity either heaven or hell There is a much better story in which to tell
