Time Lost

Time lost, Can't buy it back, At any cost... Idle hours in dreamy dreams Remake the world By any means I somehow got lost, I sit by the side of the road, Don't know which way to go, Seems I was never told, What it's like, To be alone and old And now there's no one to ask, What should be, my final task? Mend fences?, Explore new worlds? Or curl up and die, Spend my last days, In one last, long cry? I know I will die alone, No one nearby, A silent phone... I accept this fate, I knew this before I was born, How life would be, And how I'd be worn My first smile, And my last, Will be the shadow I have cast I had my days Of glory and love Now it's time To face the Lord above.
