It’s just a call from a distant past
That echoes far beyond the future
The grains of sand flow through the hour glass
The writings on the wall tell us all
It’s all a dream, it’s all a show
It’s all a game that no one knows
Smoke and mirrors on the silver screen
Pictures cut out of magazines
It’s an art to play the part
But I still speak from the heart
If history is just stuck on repeat
What am I smiling for?
It would seem that none of this is up to me
So I can happily ignore
I look away, I know
I’m not blind, I don’t mind
All the greed, all the hate
All the daemons in your face
All the pain, all the loss
When no one knows who’s the boss
Just forgive, just forget
Save your soul and let it all go
