How Long Do You Wait?

You wake up everyday
Your life in your eyes
You see it pass before you
A blur to everyone with its lies
The damage has been done

Rising from your ashes
Life, a mystery solved to you
Made from clay and stone
You know what is true
The clay fades but stones stay

Made with stars and light
The heavens shine into your soul
The light bears with your dreams
Of life and its speed beyond you
Out of the ocean like steam
You rise above yourself
Knowing your true self

Hiding in the shadows
Spying your truth through your eyes
Spinning before you in the night
She comes into you
coming into sight
coming with the light

Bearing your soul before the world
you feel it tear
you feel it burn
driven home with anguish and tears
your life hurts but to bear another day

You wake up everyday
Your life in your eyes
You see it pass before you
A blur to everyone with its lies
The damage has been done
