Lyrics
SIGN of the TIMES
Where's this place called heaven
Is it real can it be defined
What about this life I'm living with its loose ends that need tying
I want to feel I'm growing but I don't know my boundary lines
I guess the questions I'm asking must be
A SIGN of the TIMES
All my days run together like bad rhymes in free verse
People pushin, crawlin, fightin to be first
And streams of screams are telling me
all the things that I'm not
Yet no one ever asks me what I'm about
Sign of the Times
And I am overwhelmed by all these ISMS
Who claim that only they're the ONE true path
But then my inner vision makes me stop and carefully weigh
how dare they say that only they own GOD
I listen to the words of those for whom I have respect
but colorful vocabulary just doesn't have much depth
I'm hungry for definition and starving to be precise
I'm waiting for a vision but as yet
None has materialized
