The Life He Wanted

Light changes over his eyes
And the midnight sun don't feel like the night
Far away is a life he wants so badly
Two-hundred seconds of pain
Then a day so long he can't see the lane
Through the crowd in his mind he won't wear sadly

For the line has been crossed
And the road is so long
And the life he wanted is gone

Light changes up in the sky
To the sound of people starting to sigh
To get where he's going he must work harder
Young, hungry, out on the road
Feeling alright 'cuz he's wearing new clothes
In his mind, his feet won't walk much father

Fortune will fly
Into hands that a right
And the life that he wanted is why

Light changes he turns away
His struggles keep him centered at bay
Regret is a killer when it's distant
Starving but he can't eat the food
Oh the mask he wear don't change with his mood
A waste he thinks of a miracle existence

Time on his side
A pretty face in the mirror
And the life he wanted is here
