TIME

TIME
Do you feel the years slipping through your fingers .
Do you feel them slipping faster every year
can you feel the months passing on a dream
feeling yourself slipping further down that hill
When It was only a blink, when we were still teens
There are times I wished I'd stopped to feel
the rain, the wind blowing in my hair.
Dive head long into the snow without a care.
There were moments, I wished I'd followed
my dreams.
Forgetting the fear, that has held me here
All those lost and lonely times in the night.
That insomnia she is a terrible bitch.
Time has slapped me on the back.
If I had just dared, to enter outside of my
self, time past would be well spent visiting.
Instead of sitting here just wishing.
Yet now that time is slipping away
regrets and mistakes are the constant pain.
If I could go back and change the way
I dealt with things and flew
instead of clipping my wings
Would life taste like a bitter regret
I can feel life slipping through my fingers
I can feel the years slipping further away
I can feel myself slipping from those moments
When I was at a loss in what to say or do.
If I has just been brave, or so they say
Memories would be sweet, instead of decay
So tell me are you like me, watching
time slip through your hands.
I'll tell you what the hell you can do
To try and make you change your mind
never give up the dreams that have kept
you alive
If I had maybe time would have stood still
if only for a little while
To late now that time I am talking about
has caught me right up
and now its just slipping away?
Tell me what it is I was so afraid of
I can feel the time slipping through my fingers, again...
One life, one road, one way to travel, forward I go.
