    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

    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.
