Within the Woods…
Reluctantly he rises to face another day His mind still lost in yesterday He seems so far away Memories remain, recalls the times they shared Forever etched within his heart His soul to her he bared Picking up the remnants of his dreams He hides away And yet he knows It can’t go on this way Chorus: Watch how as time flies by He seems to wonder why Heaven never meet the sky Look to a whole new day And he will find his way Reflections of the past slowly fade away Time will heal the wounds but leave behind The scars that only can erase from view And hope, again, he’ll find The window to his heart now opens wide To let the sight and sounds that are all around To touch his soul inside Life is like a candle and our dreams Will light its flame But he knows that things Will never be the same (repeat chorus) Rising from the ashes He finds his way again The storm will pass And slowly will the rain Still afraid, he takes a step into a different world Reflections of the past slowly fade away… Sometimes when I turn around To see the path I took I realize the future Is still an open book If I’m a little stronger After walking through the rain Then I will know It wasn’t all in vain…

I came to this world With nothing I hold Just wanted to be like someone Who is famous to all Slowly I grow And lots I know For those who told Now they are all alone Chorus: Living in this world and think it over What I don’t know Living in this world and think it over What I don’t know is still untold Will I be alone? Unconquered fears I tried to disown My soul on hold All has become untold (repeat chorus) I shook hands with God And to me, he swore “You better not stop your fall And you better not hope at all One to many, to stall….” (repeat chorus) So can anyone tell me What will I be When I grow old Will I be alone?

I. Severed dreams Severed dreams, falling from twilight skies He looks up with a face that wears a mask of pain Lucid screams, tears that fall from jaded eyes Night draws near, the nightmares will begin again…. II. Mind overture Walking down this deserted path Of memories, surroundings dark Lost and all alone, he tries to find his way With each step, the ghosts of his past The demons of the present He runs the road of long lost years The bitter taste of wasted tears In search of ‘What might have been?’ And ‘What if I’d foreseen?’ The answers shrouded in the mist Of time, now distant and obscure Look into the abyss That is my mind, this regretful overture Time lost its meaning when I ceased to watch the clock Minutes and seconds pass, leave the marks on my face Look into reflections, realize those years forever gone Out of the blue, the signs of time slowly appear Searching my soul, as I’m facing the storm Emptiness rains from my eyes Cold and alone, just one more tear Forever lost in the wind Dreams turn to dust as I die…. III. Introspection Under these moonlit skies, the morning star behind Trapped in a world within my mind Movements through time and space, my journey carries on From years past to beyond I lie here for an eternity Holding on to pictures of my dreams Watching the colors fading day by day The flowers are withering away And everything I know and love are gone Only to find that I am left behind to stay…. IV. Nature’s conspiracy (Instrumental) V. Epiphany What If we could be perpetual like the sky? Would we see creation’s end and know the reasons why? Would we take for granted the endless years that pass us by? Years forever burn, in time we learn A lifetime is all that we have…. “To be perpetual is to leave behind Love, Dreams and Hope For then we’ll know that they are transitory The illusion that love is forever is a gift to us, whose lives are short It is only an illusion, but one that we should embrace Without it, there is no meaning to life….” Searching my soul, as I’m facing the storm Emptiness rains from my eyes Cold and alone, just one more tear Forever lost in the wind Dreams turn to dust as I die…. Tears in my eyes, as I look to the sky Searching for traces of you Silent, unseen, forever there Forever lost in the wind Dreams turn to dust as we die….

I had a dream of you last night A dream so real But everytime I call out to you You turn and walk away Without a second glance Fade colors of memories in my head One by one they seem to say Always cherish what you have Before they’re gone Places where we used to roam It’s not the same But I still see your footprints there Half-washed away by rain…. Images of you, my friend The songs that we sing, the games that we play And all of you that will never be forgotten, at all And I will always remember Seemed like yesterday When you shook my hand and told me “I will return.” But it never seemed so vague Seemed so vague to me The day when you’re gone And all that’s gone wrong It’s so hard to follow through And I don’t want to remember When you look at me, the smile on your face And then you close your eyes Don’t close your eyes…. A choice you’ve made A game of fate You were there, can you still remember? Raindrops forming in my head One by one they seem to show the way To everything I’d hoped and prayed you’d be If I had a chance to tell you Would you turn and walk away? If the road ahead isn’t easy Would you see me through the days of my life If I could turn back time Or relive all the memories of us together I would gladly….
