Nearly four years of sailing through stormy seasI have to be wiser nowOh the times that we had togetherLooking back I see dreamers, deserters,And promises that weren’t keptAnd I know that my conscience is cleanMoving onward, hoping to go onThough anger has fueled meThis anger won’t go on longAnd I’m not into excuses, complaining just bothers meAnd I’m tired of the whining and spinelessnessAnd I’ve heard all of your pipe dreams, your big schemesJust hot air from a foolBut I know that I shouldn’t think that wayShould I think that way?Remember when we, young, sat dreaming by fire’s glowWe talked long through summer nightsBut talk is cheap as I knowAnd Autumn comes and Summer diesAnd promises begin to lieAnd years roll and we become the things we said the things we’ve doneSeize the loveSeize the meaningSeize the momentSeize the memorySeize the effortSeize the truthSeize the dayTurn around and see what’s behind youAre you happy with the world that you’ve made?Look away and think of the future, is it OK?Are you sure you’ve got all the answers without a doubt?Are you feeling confident?Is that smile that you’re wearing real?
