So many times we've seen the look
That defines just who we are
Arriving in startled dreams, like chapters from a book
Wakening hidden feelings, between the twilight of the stars
A gathering of forgotten memories to calm a restless heart
Complications of strife we'll carry to our graves
Hoping before life ends the hurt we caused departs
That's the way it is on a road which has been paved
By many tears shed from those who lead the way
For life is never easy it comes with many perils
The road to eternity has a price for those who have a say
It sings of songs for forgiveness by Angels in their carols
The cost for entering the gates of forever
Simpler then you'll think to imagine
Just believe in the Father and the Son, the bearer
Of the Holy Spirit who'll cleanse our souls of sin

There is a chapel of repose
Upon an island to eternity
A quite respite to decide and choose
To embrace infinity
We're born to sail this ragged sea
Filled with waves to engulf desires
With open heart we seek the key
That will guide us from this mire
In the course of one's reflections
Lies decisions hastily made in strife
Many will fail to make corrections
In their voyage to another life
As this ship sails to the edge of forever
Time is found which has no end
Those who wander are the givers
A few we'll know as friends
Many will pass beyond the edge
To some they will be missed
While others will thread the ledge
Afraid of the maddening abyss
By and by our trek will have an ending
For we'll be judged by our creator
Hoping goodness will be the binding
Which allows us thru the gate?
So in the course of this solemn trip
Felt deeply in our soul
We'll steer the rudder of our ship
Towards the brightness beyond the cold

If the sky could shed tears
From the harm which has been struck
By mankind's controlling fears
Clouds would be like tear ducts
Crying waves of total despair
What pain would be shared?
To those below who stare?
At a world in need of repair
The years have took its toll
It's felt within our bones
The aches and pains we're told
Come in pollutants from our dome
Is their time for us to change?
To fix the damaged caused
From all we've deranged
For the clock has no pause
It moves towards a fate
We control our destiny
It can never be too late
For in the clearness of the sky
Stands infinity
