Endless time stretches out before me
Days upon days with no end I can see I'm lost in a sea of moments, 
trying to find my way But time marches on, and I'm forced to play.

I used to fill the hours with games and dreams
But now I'm drowning in endless streams Of time 
that seems to have no end Leaving me lost, with no way to amend.
Two people tied to me by fate Their eyes say no, 
but their hearts can't escape The guilt I feel tears me apart A wretch, 
tormented, with a broken heart.

They say that before we take our last breath Our life flashes before our eyes, 
a moment of death So I ask myself, 
what kind of life do I want to see? 
One full of pain or one that's free?

Did I plan to bring pain upon others with my life? 
Or did I choose to end it all with a knife? 
The consequences of choice are hard to bear A life full of regret,
 a cross to bear.

I once believed they cared for me 
But now I see that it wasn't meant to be 
Letting them in was a mistake And now I pay for it, 
my heart does ache.

Endless time, 
a curse and a blessing A reminder 
that life is a lesson Of choices made and paths not taken 
A journey that leaves us both shaken and awakened.
