Timelines Disappear

Another day goes down, under the city

Memory goes down with it, and more's the pity

Now never it was, and never will it be

When your course is corrected, there's selective symmetry

That lonely avenue, you've forgotten, haven't you

The future that was once so clear

One day your eyes will shed no tears

Watching timelines disappear

I stand in my bootprints on a snowy evening

It's like one day we're arriving and the next we're leaving

You can listen to your heart, but how do you prove it

When you're only smart enough to know that you're stupid

And were the enemy a worthy enemy

I could go on without fear

But as it stands, I'll stand right here

Watching timelines disappear

Every step you take, a galaxy is made

The more stars bloom before you, the more behind you fade

And life keeps unfolding, and we're hardly even knowing

And the walls that hold it all in, the cracks are showing

We all keep on dreaming, counting down the minutes

Praying to what remains that the light won't be diminished

Another day, another year

Pushing past the last frontier

And all the songs we'll never hear

Watching timelines disappear
