The Sands of Time The sands of time have a fine line The stepping stones of life are stepped upon (Destinations reached from) The footprints left are just vague memories Yet aren't forgotten instantly The sands of time erase everything The stepping stones corrode (You can't go back anymore) The footprints are covered and forgotten It's meant to be never again (Memories forgotten are times erased) More unseen than upon the surface The key to success is to forget your fears (Like the best) Lives are like books incomplete The blank pages yet to be filled will be torn away still Death takes what life gives Every day someone is taken away Their footprints are erased as is everything The next day isn't a certainty Everyone's lives are on the line The open doors are slowly closing Opportunities are shortcutted You seek within yourself for the answers Yet the silence is unable to tell you The climax of the book is yet to be lived through *Chorous* Any day is able to be taken Any day is able to be wasted Any day is just another day The last day is any day away In the future you are yet to be forgotten But the future holds untrue With every step that you take (Another footprint erases) Take this day and not waste it Tomorrow is another day That day is not certain to stay
