Declining, all color fading Defining, time coming for me Rescinding, my inspiration Receding consciousness ♪ Back in the day, I can recall that My thoughts were unclouded and sage There was no black staining the walls of my memories Now there's a haze pushing me sideways And leaving me nothing to gain Taking me back, locking me cold in disparity Where was I meant to be? I feel I'm lost in a dream Long for the day I can be myself When I'm free When my sun has set Released my soul forever I'll have no regret To be free I'll exist again No more lost endeavors Nothing to contend When I'm free Color declines, all that defines me Is falling away, far behind Nothing to keep me with the time The here and now Where am I meant to be? I feel I'm lost in a dream Yearning again only to be myself When I'm free When my sun has set Released my soul forever I'll have no regret To be free I'll exist again No more lost endeavors Nothing to contend When I'm free Time is just a concept (save me, near me) And always the first thing to fade (help me, hear me) (No more heartache, no misery) Agony and weakness (cure me, free me) Nothing we can never evade (help me, see me) (No more worry, no agony) Years are cruel, they break us (save me, near me) Bringing on decay and despair (help me, hear me) (We despair; No more heartache, no despairing) Awareness and perception (cure me, free me) Something we can never evade (help me, see me) (No repair; No more worry, no repairing) ♪ No one to blame, fate's only random It's nothing we'll ever explain So it remains Where was I meant to be? I feel I'm lost in a dream Long for the day I can be myself Free When will I be unleashed? It's not the way it should be Yearning again only to be myself (unleash my) Free (consciousness) When my sun has set Released my soul forever I'll have no regret To be free I'll exist again No more lost endeavors Nothing to contend When I'm free
