Pages

Looking at the pages of my life. Listen to the stories of war and strife.<br />
 Read about the pains of a broken heart. Hear the love songs sung as art.<br />
 Learning all the lessons of the past, incredible how long the pain can last.<br />
<br />
 I'm looking at the pages of my life. I hope the ending turns out all right. <br />
Looking at the pages of my life. <br />
Listen to the lyrics of my song. Listen to the tremble in your voice and hear all the things that I did wrong. <br />
Listen to a story of dispair. Hear of a hero that would not ere. <br />
Given hope born of faith and chance, pray that victory will come at last.<br />
<br />
Listen to a tale of immortal foes. Listen to the hero weep of his woes. <br />
Watch as the hero falls to his knees, see him wrestle with his God to please.<br />
See the hero broken down. Weep as he falls helpless to the ground.<br />
Feel the pain of failure here. Feel the sorrow of loved ones dear.<br />
<br />
Looking at the pages of my life, rejoice at the victories born through strife and feel the pain of extinguished life.<br />
Look at the hero brave and strong. I guess the hero was me all along.<br />
Read of the battles I've lost and won. Hear the tales of woes undone.<br />
Find joy in victory in the face of strife, as you look through the pages of my life

  1. I like it, my friend! Definitely neat to look back on things and see where we have come. I like how you put it in your lyrics. :)
