I saw myself in the mirror today
But for once in a different way
Unlike so many times before
I could see right through to the core
All of this will die some day
In a hundred years we'll be away
There's just nothing that we can do
'Cause time won't stop for me nor you
Every second that passes
Every breath that I take
The pendulum keeps swinging
The clock is digging my grave
It's just another day
That slowly fades away
I try to blend all colors
But what remains is gray
So this is me trying to capture
The sense of life, the wider picture
But every time I find an answer
I'm just nourishing the cancer
That's growing inside my head
Along the list of things that I've left unsaid
And I wish I would have done
Something of me would live on
Every second that passes
Every breath that I take
The pendulum keeps swinging
The clock is digging my grave
It's just another day
That slowly fades away
I try to blend all colors
I try to blend all colors
But what remains is gray
I'm constantly thinking
About life and everything around me
I'm hopelessly hoping
To find an answer that will work for me
Every second that passes
Every breath that I take
The pendulum keeps swinging
The clock is digging my grave
It's just another day
That slowly fades away
I try to blend all colors
Every second that passes
Every breath that I take
The pendulum keeps swinging
The clock is digging my grave
It's just another day
That slowly fades away
I try to blend all colors
But what remains is gray
