Years of fears

Sometimes

I have felt a hollow future

Other times it fills up

And becomes so strong

*

The sound is very clear

I hear the winning cheers

People far and people near

Following the slope of life

A knowing drive

A hopeful viewpoint

We all need someone

Or

Something that we can work for

**

I need you here

This time

To prevent a hollow future

This time will fill up

To become so strong

*

I have filled my days

And made it okay

No matter what they say

Faith will never be gone

I will make it each day

My optimism will stay

We will all find our way

Hope for life can’t be wrong

**

Years are mirrors

Sometimes

I have seen a hollow future

Other times it fills up

And becomes so strong

*

Years have jeers

Sometimes

They cause a hollow future

Other times we fill up

And become so strong

**

The sound is very clear

I hear the spinning gears

People far and people near

Each hold their shred of life

A better drive

A different viewpoint

We all need someone

Or

Something for us to work for

**

I need you here

All the time

To prevent a hollow future

This time will fill up

To become so strong

*

We fill up all our days

We can make it okay

No matter what they say

Trust will never be gone

I will make it some day

My optimism will stay

We all find our way

Coping is never wrong

*

We will know more about life 

By tomorrow at dawn
