Out of Time

I don't know how to survive
When I'm so far I'm out of time
I can't relate to the world today
I try, but there is just no way

My soul has been left in the past
And as the world moves forward fast
I keep falling farther behind
I'm falling farther out of time

The more time passes over me
The harder it gets to break free
And freedom comes at quite a price
I must let go of paradise

The paradise within my mind
Protected from the hands of time
But it's only a grand delusion
Just another false illusion

Words that no one ever said
Are echoing inside my head
Spoken by a golden voice
That fills my heart with endless joys

Inside this perfect fantasy
My heart is at its apogee
Outside this realm, it's all downhill
And my heart's open for the kill

So you can see why I stay here
Where I won't cry a single tear
Where my heart will never know sadness
And hate will not drive me to madness

If I were to rejoin time
And leave this perfect world of mine
My heart would know nothing but pain
With my soul drowning in the rain

Until I see a glimmer of hope
I'll hold on tightly to this rope
That tethers me to happiness
And unadulterated bliss

But if one day I should behold
Something worthy of letting go
Then I shall leave this world behind
And pull myself back into time
