These thoughts have been sprinting through my mind
As I sit and watch the sun sink beyond the line
Of trees adorned with fragrant pine
The clocks cease to relay the time
And I wonder if peace exist beyond this life of mine
Is there anything truly so divine
That would make sense of my spirit dying.

Can my sense of self escape such a fate
Am I not more than the mask that hides my face
Will my voice linger once I’ve left this place
The moon smiles and lights the lake
He tells me the search for heaven is a flawed mistake
Life is more give and take
You give your all
And your all it takes
