(Wasted Time Well Spent)

Everybodies in a rush

Dreaming of things that may never come

Spending Every weekend partying

At the local club or pub

One day your gonna wake up

And find that time never stops

Looking back at the years gone by having so much damn fun

Thinking over wrongs you could have done right

But you were young unaware living life Becoming a somebody like everybody that you see

When you could have been anyone

Doing anything really living out those dreams.

So Enjoy every moment

Watching out atop youre grassy hill, or mountain top castle

Happiness is your choosing.

So I wish you to choose well.

It doesnt matter what others might say or think.

Just as long as you know only you got you.

dont be concerned or get bruised.

You already know from lesson and mistakes before

That so few can see life's open doors

Take my word for it, im sure youve heard this already, so follow your heart.

Ill show you proof of the power within if you just keep pushing on. (Through)

Goodbye to the past, let memmories of good remain and not the dark and black of pain

Its part of the plan to have setbacks and to fail

No more limits no more chains

Stand proud the mountain that you so bravely overcame

Reflect on life, soak in nature and love in all its beauty

Pass on the torch that the world you entered, no longer remains what it once was in all its Infinte glory

A new generation sets a blaze and climbs the trail toward the mountain in the foot steps of your Visions.

This battle, this war, you fearlessy fought inside the endless maze that I dare say is in reality within your own raking brain.
