Untitled: From When I Was Down Yesterday

Outback,a new birth I hear songs to celebrate. Another soul Blessed with the gift of life A new pair of eyes To marvel at the world's wonders. Only the wise can tell That every birth Is just the cradle of a death So it is yet another clock Ticking down in countdown. Yes,the world is as vast as the seas And so are its promises But time is just the distance From your neck to your shoulder. So friend, You'll live and leave in haste Haunted by the end you can not see Allowed to dream but not to live To live but not to dream
