Evergreen

Toiling away for the things that we crave
Do we even stop to wonder what gets taken to the grave
When the needs are met but the wants compound
When the needs are met but the wants compound

So tell me would you stick around and watch me drown?

To capture now, the change foreseen
Reversing paths, to evergreen
A change of pace could soon reveal
Familiar faces, once concealed

Give me a reason to do away with the wistful visions
And find a way out of this horrid mental prison
The old delight is for us to find
That all recurring joy is pain refined
It's pain refined
Erase the pain
But it's all the same

To capture now, the change foreseen
Reversing paths, to evergreen
A change of pace could soon reveal
Familiar faces, once concealed

While the pain is necessary, the suffering ain't mandatory

To capture now, the change foreseen
Reversing paths, to evergreen
A change of pace could soon reveal
Familiar faces, once concealed
