Facing the daily grind I find myself further behind. Of the future I'm blind Can't see where I'm going My age I'm showing Two steps forward only moves me two back Time is on the attack Trying to find Peace of mind Can't live life in rewind If you want to move ahead Hold close, the love your fed Time passing by Tears that you...
