The Only Way I Know

I know not how this tale will end, or just how far will go.
To see what's stretched out on the other-side.
A new frontier, a different way of life.
A chance to see the truth within.

In a fleeting glimpse of memory, a smile is born, from a thought of happier days.
The days when you were young, and life would last forever.
Cause now I know how life can be. This world can be so cold and cruel.
That only few care to accept there fellow man for who they are.
We see what we want to, we are so quick to judge.
To cast away, the ones with tainted goods, no second chance be given.
For there is not left the time to share, we've all gone running scared.
Hence this time and space that binds us, is diminished by the hour.
As I speak to you, I wonder, will I ever see the day
when shifting sands unearth a path to freedom.
A freedom not whithered by the hands of distrust or despair,
but one of balance forged in certitude.
In my life, i've never quite been sure this is possible.
So in a quiet desperation,
I will wait.

It's all about perspective, the light by which you see.
The foreground and the distance, attitude, and persistence.
So check your position, and watch your step.
Fear not the answers of your mother natures calling.
For she'll never steer you wrong,
it's the only way I know.
