LOSING TIME Misplaced time you can’t get back Within these walls we are trapped Lessons feed knowledge that we lack To keep us moving on life’s track I’ve gone to far my sight is blurred But still I never say a word To weak to even be concerned When pain is all I’ve really learned Unable to gain a moment of peace It seems so far I just can’t reach All this torment you can keep Because this life is killing me Coerced to stay within this clock Where life is based on ticks and tocks An endless circle that never stops Will someone please release the lock? I’ve tolerated lies and this endless fight But this constant pain just can’t be right I see no hope left in sight Can someone, somewhere, show me the light? I’m losing faith in better days And to depression I’ve fallen prey I’m not worth the effort to try and save So let me quietly waste away If I quit…time still moves on Another memory…a faded song Here is now but not for long Embrace these moments before they are gone Copyright (C) Angel Campbell
Solution is just as you say, embrace the joy that can only be had by living in this moment, not by a clock's moment but by your breath's moment, by what your eyes see and your ears hear and body feels.
