A wall casts its shadow in the twilight's glow I walk through its darkness where the light and shadows flow My silhouette consumed yet no pain inside Until the light pulls me out and my shadow swallows the tide Life is like iron time is like rust The years I've lost are covered in dust I cannot erase the marks of decay But in the rust of time I find my way As flowers fall I sigh and a second slips away As rivers flow I ponder and time fades into gray In thought I find my freedom in silence I find my might Yet the world's greatest paradox is the distance in plain sight Life is like iron time is like rust The years I've lost are covered in dust I cannot erase the marks of decay But in the rust of time I find my way So close yet so far the world's cruelest jest A step away yet an endless quest In the rust of time I see the truth A fleeting moment's grace a glimpse of youth Life is like iron time is like rust The years I've lost are covered in dust I cannot erase the marks of decay But in the rust of time I find my way Find my way
