Past

(Album: Fear - 2019)

Time is a world unto itself
Just a graceless ringing bell
You try to buy but it won't sell
Straight down the track, no going back

Life is just a breath before the ground
The sun is up then rushes down
Is there a purpose to be found?
Straight down the track, no going back

Can't make it stop
Can't slow it down
Nothing to do but let it push me around
I can't keep it still
I can't turn it back
Barely a blink before it's all in the past
I'm fading so fast

Look, beyond the sun, beyond the clouds
Is there a life still to be found?
Don't want to spark then just fade out
Straight down the track, I'm not going back

Can't make it stop
Can't slow it down
Nothing to do but let it push me around
I can't keep it still
I can't turn it back
Barely a blink before it's all in the past
I'm fading so fast

I'm on my knees crying out
I need You to save me
I see a light, I hear a sound
"You're all right, I got you now"
Here in the face of all my doubt
These burdens are lifting up
I was lost, but now I'm found
And I'm looking on and on and on and on

I don't want to stop
I'm not slowing down
Nothing to do but lay it all on the ground
I can't keep still
I'm not turning back
Barely a blink before this moment is past
But the future will last

You're all that I have
I'm not turning back
You're all that I have
I'm not turning back
