Shattered Dreams

The journey of life is a delicate task
It has many twists and turns
Progress is fading and it's sinking real fast
Aimless with nowhere to run
The weight of the stress, it discolors my skin
I'm blinded by my tears
I crawl up these walls that surround me now
Familiar scenes unfold
Life, it can change in the blink of an eye
Tragedy, it comes with no warning sign
Shattered dreams – broken pieces of my life
Dreaded scenes – how can I fix them or my life again?
When youth was upon me, an angel appeared
and said I’d never be alone
Now my life speeds before me, a chilling detail
as I face death on my own
On my own
On my own
They know there’s something that’s growing inside
Their faces show concerns they cannot hide
Their whispers bring on silent screams
Misfortune brings on, brings on shattered dreams
Hear the voice of wisdom
Message in the light
I curse the family tree
that has brought on all this plight
Driven by this silent voice, driven by my eyes
I curse the hands of time that are tearing me apart
Now as I exit the haze of discern,
I enter the crossroads of life
There is no time for penance or pity
The truth I can’t deny
Life, it can change in the blink of an eye
Tragedy, it comes with no warning sign
Shattered dreams – broken pieces of my life
Dreaded scenes – how can I fix them or my life?
Shattered dreams – broken pieces of my life
Dreaded scenes – how can I fix them or my life again?
