Ahead of us is the unknown truth we are seeking
The implications of the words we keep hiding
The dreams we see but are never shown
The memories we have yet to call our own
Can we just take it one step at a time
This hourglass takes hold of our sublime
Can we find peace, and love, and hold on forever
Maybe this time, maybe it's now or never
We always look back at the past
Past us is the future unchanged
Changes around us as we live in today
Today our actions affect our next
Next is tomorrow again and again
But can we turn back the future until then
These pages of life are filled with our time
The chapters ahead still hold vacant lines
The ending we guess but we could be wrong
The theme of our life is in the words of a song
Can we just slow down and take our time
This hourglass is running out of rhythm and rhymes
Can we find peace, and love, and hold on forever
Maybe this time, maybe it's now or never
We always think back to our past
Past us is the future we're hoping for
For our life is where we are today
Today we live like there's no tomorrow
Tomorrow we seek, we conquer
But for the moment can we turn back the future
