Time
You burn down the hourglass
to prevent facing the truth
hold the sands of time
keep lit the flames of youth
try to keep the years
from slipping to far away
life is a huge game of chess
its your turn to play
you see your face grow pallid
slowly you begin to fade
you try to calm the inner turmoil
your lost behind a palisade
the sides are asymetrical
on your side lies the past
you want to be the future
and make your chess game last
you want to escape the trammel
from which you've been caught
go back to the way things were before
brag of the battle you fought
but that is not the way God intended
all are born to die
we live our life with no way to change this
no one really knows why
time is not in your control
you cannot change whats written in the stars
forget your ideology
and accept who you are
