one hundred years and counting

so after much debating, I decided to post this online. mostly cuz im not sure anyone comes here anymore because i have been so unproductive. Exept Seth, but hes read this already.

New stuff to come I PROMISE.

It's been a long road
So tired and so old
I've battled upwards every mile
Its time to pass on this fight

My weary eyes can't see no more
What have these hands worked for?
I've lived so many years by now
I know when to put in the towel.

This life is only spending, giving more than I have.
Running at the pace, I know I won't be able to last.

So, as time passes on
Can I stand still?
I think I'm living
Something I can't feel
We can make it step by step walking with someone by our side
but all I"ve ever known were echoes from another time.
So if you let me back out of this show,
I promise not to bow before I go.

These curtains were made to close
We act but there's no show
Some come for the hour hands
I come for the second

Does it all mean nothing?
If you dont do something
Is this deck loaded
How can we know it
We talked about those secrets you share on your wedding day
We didn't talk of the secrets you share only with your grave

So as time goes on
Can I stand still?
I think I'm living
Something I can't feel
We can make it step by step walking with someone by our side
but all I"ve ever known were echoes from another time.
So if you let me back out of this show,
I promise not to bow before I go.

It's not to say its worthless and its not to say I'm through
I just cant keep on moving knowing I don't know the truth
It's not to say its over or that it could ever end
I'm just not sure how I'll make because this is all I am

So as time goes on
Can I stand still?
I think I'm living
Something I can't feel
We can make it step by step walking with someone by our side
but all I"ve ever known were echoes from another time.
So if you let me back out of this show,
I promise not to bow before I go.
