I'm trying to show restraint I truly am It's not really my way But I look around and see I'm a few steps ahead of reality My mind has run away with me Making the present seem rather bland I haven't learned the weight of a moment Yet I know the hope that stands On the other side of today or tomorrow Or on the other hand I know how to long for things I don't have And have forgotten to care for the land My current place in time and space Has begun to collapse I am lost in tomorrow While today is slowly slipping away
