In the Silence of Time
In the silence of time
Tomorrow's unknown
Maybe I'll try
Maybe I won't
Dropping my pride
I've struggled too long
I feel it inside
Solemn yet strong
I patiently wait
Watching the tides
The lapping of waves
Fighting my mind
Walking to shore
I look to the sand
Wishing for more
I tighten my hand
Stood on there own
These memories of me
And now I feel old
I just cannot see
For I didn't look
And I ended up here
On the route that I took
Only darkness appeared
These demons of mine
Long do they wait
Frozen by time
Forever they stay
Where did I go?
It left me behind
Floating ashore
In the silence of time.
