look around you,
and feel the air in the breeze,
filled with the freedom of a 1000 years.
dismay and pain that your soul bore,
leave them to the blowing winds,
turn around and welcome the life you've dreamt.

life that you've never known,
life that you've dreamt of, for a million years.
just a step ahead,
count the life you've lived,
sorrow or fullness,
its the choice that you made.

rainy days on your left,
but the sun ain't far away,
reach for the light from the corner of your heart,
hidden, forgotten for ages of time.

your life, written in the books of fear
fear of the unknown,
that put you away from the bell to ring.
just a step away from a 100 miles your on.
choice are yours.

striving for the life,
scared to leap further,
read the people ahead,
can you just hold back,
carrying your miseries to the promise land.

fade away those endless nightmares,
slaggin' you back to lose,
no time to wonder why,
this life's too short to end this way.

waiting for the right time,
but it will end before your time is true.
the clutches you put on,
hang them over to the bars of this reckless world of cry.
coz in the end,
its how you play in this barren land of loneliness,pain and sorrow.
Life is a choice .. one way or the other... depends on how much u wanna change...
