What was I but a glimpse of time
A grain of hope caught in god's eye
A young man's flesh driven by the heart
An old man's soul torn apart

As the night lights creep from the land of sleep
I feel loss girdling round my tone way

All the pains I've lived through
And I live through still
Recollections and scars left to prove
My past was real
All the pains I've lived through
And I live through still
Missing parts
Broken pieces of me

What was I but melodies and chords
Pure emotions soaking words
And a war drum beat syncing heart and feet
On a march through expectancy's fields

All the pains I've lived through
And I live through still
Recollections and scars left to prove
My past was real
All the pains I've lived through
And I live through still
Missing parts
Broken pices of me
