Tomorrow's Shadow - Ensign

Time flies by, day to day

I start to question decisions made

I see old friends don’t understand

What lies ahead already planned

Apprehensive insecurity

Torn between two realities

Stuck in a rut 9 to 5

Scared to death if I’ll survive

Can I continue to chase my dreams

Or will it catch up to me

Problems I don’t want to face

To disappear without a trace

Is there a way for us to see

What lies ahead, where we will be

Is there a way for us to know

Do we have a choice, do we have control

Feel the heat it’s on back

Concerned of what it is I lack

Pressure mounts it’s at my heels

Sometimes I think this can’t be real

Will I let this drag me down

Am I the only one around

Unable to figure for myself

Which cards to keep from which I’m dealt

Do I stay or should I fold

This game we play is getting old

There comes a time for letting go

Of all the truths you think you know

I want to do what’s right for me

But sometimes it’s so hard to see

Which path to take, which bond to break

I can’t forget my own mistakes

I won’t accept mediocrity

I can’t go on unless I’m truly being me

And if that means, you don’t approve

Too fucking bad my mind is set and I won’t move
