Lyrics

Bilingual
Every life must have a reason
So I thought the story goes
Just holding on to dreams now
As reality steals the show
Wisdom's such an asset
But it's gained too late in life
The prize of youth without control
Just the blade but not the knife
The dawn of life
I've waited long to see
Now the figure of resentment
This is not how I thought it would be
The challenge is here
Don't say what you fear
What's over the hill, do you know?
No longer the child
Once was so wild
Wait for the old man to show
ย
I wake up every morning
Though I've slept through all these years
A cog that turns another
Am I a clockwork puppeteer?
The treadmill of surviving
I'm still spinning round and round
The motions I'm so used to
That I need no sight nor sound
The dawn of life
I've waited long to see
Now the figure of resentment
This is not how I thought it would be
Can't you see
The challenge is here
Don't say what you fear
What's over the hill, do you know?
No longer the child
Once was so wild
Wait for the old man to show
The truth in their eyes
Still wear the disguise
Of wonders you may never see
It's high time to fear
The final frontier
The face in the crowd is now me
ย
I painted life by numbers
Every color mixed so true
But how could I paint a rainbow
When all I saw, it was blue?
The picture now is drying
As I wipe dirt from the frame
A lifetime's portrait is complete
But the canvas is still blank
Still so blank
ย
I see changes
ย
What's over the hill, do you know?
I wait for the old man to show
I see changes
Changes
ย
What's over the hill, do you know?
I see changes
