Time Without End

I look through the hourglass
Waiting for time to pass
The hours are like old traces
Of lines in the sand

It seems I've strayed
From the path somehow
Lost in the memories
Of old tomorrows (tomorrows)

Not recalling where I am
I stop for a moment in thought
A voice calls out to me
In the darkness of my imagination

Take my hand and walk with me
For I will show you the way
Take my hand and walk with me
For I will lead the way

Your dream of that which lies beyond
(For the means justify the end)
But once you're there
There is no turning back

When you walk with me
Your fate has been sealed
Until time without end
(For the means justify the end)

Desiring to be enlightened at every cost
No matter the consequence
A weakness greater than you will ever known
(For the means justify the end)

A moment seems
Like a lifetime in this mindset
As if time stand still
Yet the sand seeps down at a steady pace

I bend my thoughts in contemplation
Challenging accepted insight
In deepest thought, I am as time runs out
And there is no turning back now
