It came to be

It came to be

Questions i didnt know

The answers too

Things that kept eluding me

Promises made

Yet long forgot

A heart that keeps beating

Days long ago

A soul that once had happiness

A time recalled before now still

It came to be

Peace and fight

Let go or hold

A distant cry on tears now dry

The guidance left

To but just try

And moments lived

And times to come

How simplicity hides

When the soul carries on

It came to be

 

Wise but lacking solitude

Silence yet chaos sounds aloud

Holding desperate to some truth

It came to be

Answers ive always knew

Love cant stay when fear

Runs through

The very fibre found that

Makes us human too

 

It came to be

Hollow lies with hidden meanings

Sacred spaces to distant views

Found on the near

Horizons view

And echo's off a mind reborn

By hopeless travels and

Fruitless looms

It came to be

I never but knew

When you give up

Life beats upon

Unwillingly it steals the song

If what was once and

Whats still to come

Hopeless and harshly taken from

 

It came to be

I didnt found

The journey worth travelling on

Yet looking back

Lack and sorrow

It came to be

A forlorn tomorrow
