Reflection (Phase 1)

Every single day in my life i try to get away
from all the trials and stress that always seem to come my way
I'm always wishing in my heart that I was still younger
but time drifts me from my youth, makes my heart grow fonder
that's due to the absence, the distance makes memories
of the young child and experiences that used to be
spent in the playground with all the little boys and girls
To me, life was just an endless free world

Just thinking about all the friends I had that have passed away
Makes me feel sure there's a reason I am here today
All of those souls long gone, here's a line for you
you'll always have a place in my heart, friends, that is true
Time just flies by, bringing us closer
To the very end where our bodies get colder
Wasting all our time in sin as we get older
like we're not afraid of death, boy we're getting bolder

I look into the mirror and i think to myself, "man,
What if I never get to see this old face again?"
And then i feel the vibe of a cold shiver down my spine
And thoughts about the end of the world start to fill my mind
I think about my brother and my sisters and my mother
I think about my father and my friends and I bother
The thought of them not being around makes me feel down
But then something tells me I should turn my mind around

I guess it's all about what we do in our lives now
I'm praying that we're all good, 'cos we're all going to die somehow...
