a slip from the mind, feelings run deep.
a lot untold.
no sense of time, has taken your sleep.

to love yourself.
finding something in a place that's gone,
it's done..

in the arms of the season’s end.
done to write, write off the answers,
in the arms of the season’s end.

they won't comfort you today.
wait, no more tears,
they won't comfort you today.
Verse
do you feel the necessity?
it's not your mess.
conscience regained, but no remedy.
still you wander on.
is it passing, or has it gotten my side?
love your soul.
seeking endings and a closure of,
it's done..

done to lie, lie with the others,
in the arms of the season’s end.

Verse
i am the beggar.

now you know that.

it's hiding on down with you.

Fleeting Mind
04:37
|
|||
|
Verse
restless, travelled within.
passing, haunted again.
clouded the truth, that's swaying your head.
boundless.
cracks in the tide, forming a lifeline.
washing away, poem unsung.
searching beyond, to where you belong.
graced with heartache.
Chorus
fleeting mind, high far from anyone.
fleeting time, floating inside your dome.
living free in the world you own,
timid are the walls you hold.
to hush and cover.
After chorus
now the rain drops, so the rain.
now the rain falls.
from the window, in your eyes.
Verse
it's helpless, shifting the years.
you're homeless, need to recede.
lost is the kite, with beacons alike.
grim and clouded.
Chorus
fleeting mind, high far from anyone.
fleeting time, floating inside your dome.
living free in the world you own,
timid are the walls you hold.
to hush and cover.
After chorus
now the rain drops, so the rain.
now the rain falls.
from the window, in your eyes.
flocks around,
from the window,
the rain drops.

Verse
Passion's made you older, you feel.
A small piece of mind.
Slowing down in day dreams,
for what it's worth.
The hope to wake.
Verse
Starting over, your hands they're,
Pulsing around.
Gotta stay in touch, after what you've learned.
Contemplating, what if you're to blame.
Verse
The verge of no return,
You're the only one.
Create to overcome.
Verse
A long time, to weigh your traces.
Gave way, to always,
Raising it higher.
Routine that keeps you wired.
Buries your own desire..
When again,
You forgot where you are from.
Always on the run.
