Chasing Time
I've watched in silence, without seeing as a stranger within me grew
Detached and distanced from the day while youth's precious years flew
Chasing time through empty skies of endless hours, living for the future
Visions of brighter days to come kept the shadows from my sight, made the present bearable and obscured the fading light
Chasing time through the cold void of solitary days, living for the future
Today is within my reach and tomorrow is so illusive
But I'm still chasing time through increasing disillusion, forever living for the future of an illusion
Detached and distanced from the day while youth's precious years flew
Chasing time through empty skies of endless hours, living for the future
Visions of brighter days to come kept the shadows from my sight, made the present bearable and obscured the fading light
Chasing time through the cold void of solitary days, living for the future
Today is within my reach and tomorrow is so illusive
But I'm still chasing time through increasing disillusion, forever living for the future of an illusion
