Stealing Days

I'm losing hours
not counting back
I'm stealing days as it turns around the corner

I am with arms closed
not getting back
in the middle of myself i console the insignificant me

There's the pretentious it's obvious
though how inconspicuous it seems
in the shadows of life it gives birth to its seeds
as the darkness of days closes in

Where there's deception it lingers
oh how well it hides under its skin
if a penny is for thoughts then how much does it worth
what is wrong with this world to begin

Picture that life is a cycle
that's turning around every second that passes by
if what goes away keeps on returning
how much of your faith do you need in believing

I wouldn't know where to start
yet everything comes from a place of beginning
how much of us have we kept alive
while we're drifting apart in this cultured void
there's so much left to understand
still so much more to make amends for
the hands on the clock can never be stopped
just what are we still waiting for

I'm keeping pieces
not letting go
when tomorrow sets afoot I'm not holding it back again

I'm selling short now
keep looking back
so much of everything still the walls seem to keep closing in

I'm making mistakes
no leaving that
in the moment i find myself I'm the man i never knew i could be
