A Passage In Time

As you go!
On your way, throughout it all, without a questioning of consequence in store
And all the things that you wanted, made for a better way of everything they're using you for
That's when you feel like you're dying, and want to and some place to go
And then you say that you'll and a better way, like so many times before, as you go!
So many pro?ting, from your misfortune and a broken intuition brought abuse
Now as they're gloating in your face and stand so prominent
Now asking how you had ever have a chance without a clue!
That's when you feel like you're dying, and want to and some place to go!
And then you say that you'll and a better way, like so many times before, as you go!
Look at the faces that you trust and put them up inside your head!
And out of all the faces that you see, who's gonna be there in the end?
And out of all the times that you have turned, like so many times before
Who's gonna be the one to turn their back, running out that door!
Some people! Trying on their fake-ass two faces, saying they only want what's best for you
But hidden deep down within all their smiles, was depravity arising soon
That's when you feel like you're dying, and want to and some place to go!
And then you say that you've found a better way, than so many times before, as you go!
Look at the faces that you trust and put them up inside your head!
And out of all the faces that you see, who's gonna be there in the end?
And out of all the times that you have turned, like so many times before
Who's gonna be the one to turn their back, running out that door!
How many people want to and the time and want to make your fantasies come true?
How many people want to tell you lies and want to tell you what you're supposed to do?
And when you gonna realize that it's all just in your head?
Think for you, for yourself instead!
Far away, far from home, from the truth and the lies
Far away from things that they tell you, well that's where you'll and
That's when you feel like you're trying and then you've found some place to go!
And now you say that you've found a better way, than so many times before, as you go!
Look at the faces that you trust and put them up inside your head!
And out of all the faces that you see, who's gonna be there for you in the end?
And out of all the times that you had turned, like so many times before
Who's gonna be the one to turn their back? Running out that door!
Out that door!
Out that door!
Out that door!

I'm going down to Mesa Town,
I'm gonna see what the fuck is going down
Don't know all you people here, so I'm gonna have another beer
1, 2, 3, 4 Billy's headin' out the door
He's going down to Mesa Town and lookin' to score
Billy don't know you people there
So if you got beef I got his back so don't you fuckin' dare
You stupid ass pigs come walkin' my way
You're telling me to live right every day
Oh yeah, well I don't know you people there
So if you've got beef they got my back so don't you fuckin' dare
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
I said whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
I said whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
Well I had a girl she left me too, she left me for some other dude
Well, I really wish her well, she made my life a living hell
Going down to Mesa Town to see the sites,
and get in ?ghts with people downtown
Well there ain't nothin' going down here yeah
So me and Bill will sit and chill and have ourselves a beer
Well I don't know you, and you don't know me
If you're from mountain view let's come and see
Well I've got my boys, well don't you know,
We're gonna come kick down your fuckin' door
Yeah!
Well I'm going down to Mesa Town,
I'm gonna see what the fuck is going down
Don't know all you people here so I'm gonna have another beer
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
I said whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah
I said whoa whoa yeah yeah
Phase three!

I look around and it's the same old situation on a different day
These masses of confrontation beating me down
I'm picking at the pieces to put them all back into place
A never ending crossword of questions collaborates
While asking myself, where are we going in time?
But hey, everyday, I'll pick my feet up off the ground
And everyday you'll see, I don't make believe
That everything is okay, but in the end
The life that you choose to lead is your fate
You'll see
Communication with yourself and asking,
"Is this really where I want to be?"
No way!
Patronized, antagonized, and bound beyond
the boundaries of everyday life
A mutual enmity for a system of conformity, and asking myself,
Is this really where I want to be?
Anchors away, don't let it drag you down oh no!
But hey everyday, I'll pick my feet up off the ground
And everyday you'll see, I don't make believe
That everything is okay, but in the end
The life that you choose to lead is your fate
You'll see

Over seasons, like so many times before
You drop drop drop it 'til you break down the walls
Over seasons, when you come disobey
Just keep on droppin' 'til the break of the day
Over seasons, like so many times before
You drop drop drop it till you break down the walls
Over seasons, when you come not obey
Just keep drop drop drop drop

Lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
At age 14 no inhibitions, and I sure as hell did not need your permission
Never looking forward, and I was never looking back, and I'd never known what's next
But as the days had gone by, both ignorant and blind
New visions of a world started ?lling my eyes!
Tossing and turning, with eyes open wide, that is where I ?nd!
I'm lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
Years go by as we start to see
So many generations torn by poverty and greed
So many whining that their lives are oh so bad
But far better than so many, it's sad!
Becoming intoxicated by all of the madness
And all of the pain that they've been through
Hoping and searching, a world in despair, right outside, no more!
I'm lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
There's just got to some other way, those people are dying today
There's just got to be some other time, that they are going to ?nd
There's just got to be some sort of progress, some other way they're going to know
There's just got to be another means to an end, here's to hoping that it will show!
Wake up!
Like some people in our society
And it grows, planted like a seed
So what do we do when it comes down on you
Cries ring out as a chime for awakening
Taking the time to listen up, maybe don't turn away
Maybe showing interest could show them light of day
(Can't you see their faces)
Well it's a pretty ?ne line as community paces
Stepping up to the edge daily different cases
(Oh can't you see their faces coming around, so many faces,
different places with so many face down)
Third world tragedy, another in store
Another taste of what's real, can they take anymore?
Lying awake, lost in time with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows
Awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
Here today gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
I'm lying awake!

Here we go
Think about the promises that kept you walking wandering in time
Whoa!
Don't you know they kept you walking kept you wanting
kept you walking everybody!
In time
I keep on thinking the same old thing, but then again what can I say?
I keep on trying to live my life, I keep trying to ?nd a better way!
Well as everyday goes by I'll try, but I don't know if I'll make it through
But I'll move along and push on until I do
Because everything that you'd tried to build in time
Well that's everything you'd tried to hide
Well that's everything that you want to believe
Your motivation puts you where you'll be
What a way, don't waste away in time!
Well I'm seeing through the eyes of a modern man that I don't know
Should I try to ?nd? Could I buy the time? I don't know
Well stand together, we will forever, gotta bet we'll be okay
Wide-eyed reminisce, what a blissful good ol' days
So here we go, through eyes that I don't know
Will we move along? Time will only show,
because it's everything that you want to believe
A revelation, ?nd a way to see all those memories are not put up on the side!
When you look around the world and the scenes,
all the means, little things, what it means to you
When suddenly, no warning to mourning,
what you think takes a total different point of view
What it means, little things, all the means,
world scenes turn around and take a look at you
You never know when you go, live it up here we go!
Got a lot more living to do! Hey! In time
