Reign Over Me

Gone is the one that I love
She left me with nothing but pain
As I look into the sun,
I learn that my life has to change
Time slows to a halt
Exploring the depths of my mind,
carefully trying not to fall
I'm looking for all I can't find

My time has come
I must be strong
Clouds flood the sky
Tears reign over me

Wandering aimlessly, no guidance and no insight
Cycle of nature disturbed by our greed
Making belief in this pretentious society
Teaching us all to manipulate minds

My time has come
I must be strong
Clouds flood the sky
Tears reign over me

"I'm afraid we're losing the real virtues of living life passionately,
the sense of taking responsibility for who you are,
the ability to make something of yourself and feeling good about life."

I know you don't understand,
but it's time that I try my hand
to rid the disease from this land
My time has come
The sky is grey, the color's drained
The world I'm leaving behind
All is gone, all is lost

"You haven't met yourselves yet.
But the advantage to meeting others in the meantime
is that one of them may present you to yourself."
