On Looking Back at This Point in Time

It must taken a lot of courage for you to look behind Although you fear what you know you'll find To see what was your paradise in ruins and crumbles And the halfhearted sighs and the thoughtless mumbles When the running is easy, but the leaving troubles you Leaving the things and places and people who shaped you The dreams you had and the plans you made are slowly dragging you down When you just feel like sinking, but you fear you may drown Remember this my friend and remember it well When you're reached rock bottom of your private hell You can only go one way from there and that one way is up And when you stand before the reflecting pool, fill your cup When You can see your mistakes by the scars on your face Those things are gone now like some great disgrace The rest of your life is all that will last So leave this place run and run fast And when your past starts to gain ground And you don't know why those memories come around Savor the good times and wait for the bad times to pass Because you can't see your future through a crystal glass
