The bell strikes my hour, I greet the setting sun
I do not understand why all of this is still undone
The river that used to flood is now a bed of sand
I only hope that these dreams will refresh this drying land
    
The mind wonders across the time
Never lets me rest
It’s taken control, pulling the strings
And all seems like a mess
    
Distant shore on ahead
Pushing thru the waves
Standing at the crossroads
Knowing which path to take
    
Release the time
After all you’re in the prime
No longer pretend
And silence will be your new friend
Release your mind
Don’t let yourself be confined
On a way to make amends
And learning how to transcend
    
The new life has appeared, fresh and plentiful
The greatest time on the way and I am acceptable
    
Distant shore on ahead
Pushing thru the waves
Standing at the crossroads
Knowing which path to take
    
Like turns of the tides, feelings come and go
Some will move you and I, some leave us cold
The essence of this all is if we shed a tear
And share a smile, there’s nothing to fear
