Lyrics
A year from now will it be any better
A year from now, will the situation improve?
How long has it been now? I can't remember
I've lost track of the duration; I cannot recall.
Days held in suspension, ripe with apprehension
Days filled with uncertainty and anxiety, hanging in limbo.
Compounding fracture, a view from the deep end
An increasingly complicated problem seen from a difficult perspective.
Every time I'm granted a gasp of air
Every time I briefly feel relief,
My thoughts pull me back into complete disrepair
My thoughts drag me back into a state of complete disrepair.
Will I ever find peace or the closure I seek?
Will I ever find inner peace or the resolution I am searching for?
Left to accept my fate on this cold, forsaken peak
Left alone to acknowledge my destiny on this desolate, abandoned summit.
Countless hours spent, devotion & sweat
Countless hours devoted with hard work and dedication.
The culmination of which I never got to witness
The climax or result of my efforts that I never got to see.
A life I used to hold so tight in my hands
A life that used to be firmly within my control.
Has escaped me completely with time I'll never get back
Has completely slipped away from me, accompanied by time I can't retrieve.
Change is a constant, nowhere that I can run to
Change is inevitable, and there's no place for me to escape.
Can't escape this black hole
I'm unable to avoid this profound emptiness or despair.
Time itself forever altered
Time itself has been permanently changed or affected.
But what I wouldn't give for just one more day
But I deeply desire just one more day despite the altered circumstances.
The smell of sweet summer grass
The scent of fresh summer grass and reminiscing about an old game.
And that old game we used to play
Recalling memories of a simpler, happier time.
