The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time

The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time



There's a face in the glass

Looking through the mirror

At the maze of my past

It was never clearer



On the distant horizon

The sun approaches

Better cover my eyes

Better hide the roaches



In the best of my time

There was something better

And the quest of my mind

Was to try and get her



Something simple and pure

As the thoughts in my head

Not the tears in the rain

Over me she shed



We were almost there

Still I was unaware



Here in the Brave New World's embrace

I watch the parade begin

Searching for one familiar face

And I wonder where I fit in

How will I know if there's a place

For me in the Brave New World



To be calm in the eye

Of the human storm

In house full of dreams

I am safe and warm



Looking back at a life

Filled with warm embraces

No regrets only memories

Of smiling faces



We were almost there

Now change is in the air



Until now I held the zone

I ruled the world

I called it home

I never saw the down side



See the now see the Zen

There is no division

Through the eyes of a child

There is perfect vision



And the best of our lives

Resonate the hills

And the sun's gonna shine

And you know that I will...
