Everything's gone out of control silently sliding away Destiny's end is calling again the future was yesterday Visions of light fade in my eyes energy falls from my hands Faint in the night echoes of life drown in the day's demands How did I get so stranded Here I am built a house on the sand And I know I've been slipping away too fast Slipping away I caught a glimmer of what could be Another future a possibility But just a blink and it was gone And I was staring back at me Forever dreaming of what to do Never achieving I never see it through Don't want to live like yesterday This time my dreams are coming true The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting Lost in the safety of modern times Nobody tells you to read between the lines So you could stumble in the dark Or you could open up your eyes The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting I'm tired of waiting I caught a glimmer of what could be Another future a new reality I'm going to chase it through the night I'm going to bring it back to me The clouds are rolling by there's purpose in the sky I'm rooted to the ground procrastinating The sun's about to set and nothing's happened yet Don't want to close my eyes I'm tired of waiting I'm tired of waiting Here I am built a house on the sand And I know I've been slipping away too fast Slipping away Visions of light fade in my eyes energy falls from my hands Faint in the night echoes of life drown in the day's demands How can I stop them from slipping away
