Hourglass

When the darkness sheds light for the tears of the lost It also illuminates the route that we're on and the paths we've crossed The past is gone the question to focus on now is, what road are you on Time flies past like sand in the hourglass in a constant descent Never stopping forever changing, it's the world's greatest incentive To answer the question for yourself, what road are you on To become aware of where you are, you must sometimes ask how you got there To understand the transition from who you were to who you are to find out where you're going To then ask the question Is this where I want to be, what road are you on Falling down may not seem like the answer but it could be just what you need Because you can see your road from a different perspective when you're down on your knees To plant your feet and rise again knowing now, what road are you on One day the road will end the pavement will be gone The path you walked will still remain as a testament to all you've done So scatter your street with good intentions that others can carry on But first you must ask yourself, what road are you on
