Reflections

The moon amidst a sea Reaching out, With introspective lies I'd sell my soul to stop time The mocking shadows whisper Songs of sweet relief and rest The shame it floods and pulls me under Set us free of this I can't stay here forever It's not fair that we don't get to Stay this young, not remember My life is fleeting right before my eyes The voice below is growing Slowly grabbing me It grips around my soul And it drags me down I can't stay here forever It's not fair that we don't get to Stay this young, not remember My life is fleeting right before my eyes And I'll never be the same As this life washes away Remnants of what I used to be When I look in the river An old soul stares back at me Clinging to life by a thread Faint of beauty, full of misery And when I close my eyes I can see my reflection staring at me I'm shattered and broken How much time is left in this world for me My life is fleeting right before my eyes I can't stay here forever It's not fair that we don't get to Stay this young, not remember My life is fleeting right before my eyes And I'll never be the same As this life washes away Remnants of what I used to be And I'll never be the same As this life washes away Remnants of what I used to be
