Hope And Time Wait For No One

Hope keeps eluding me
Like a diamond ring at the bottom of a sink drain
Look close you'll see it sparkle and fade
Why is everything that's beautiful always
Rusted and out of reach

So in the morning when I open up my eyes
I'll still be haunted by the roaring whirr of those cold industrial street lights
Don't you know that everything's the same as it once was
No different than it was back then
The world moves from order to chaos and back to order again

Time keeps surprising me
Like an extra bottle in the liquor cabinet
I put it there to keep me company
It listens well when it's full
But it don't talk back when it's empty

So in the morning when I open up my eyes
I'll still be haunted by the roaring whirr of those cold industrial street lights
Don't you know that everything's the same as it once was
No different than it was back then
The world moves from order to chaos and back to order again

My mind is not my own sometimes, I have to share it with everyone I know
There are so many things I can do nothing about
Oh there is so much that I wish I could control
When those whispers turn to screams, become oh so deafening
And sometimes it's all that I can do just to finally slow my breathing

Say it's alright, It's not your fault

So in the morning when I open up my eyes
I'll still be haunted by the roaring whirr of those cold industrial street lights
Don't you know that everything's the same as it once was
No different than it was back then
The world moves from order to chaos
(From order to chaos)
From order to chaos
(From order to chaos)
The world moves from order to chaos and then back to order again

(CHAOS REIGNS)
