Look out across the ocean
Look out across the sea
Look out across the distance
Wonder what became of me
Boundless determination
Reckless naivety
Youthful anticipation
Life's a wondrous mystery
Look out across this barren landscape
this desert view
Look out across the distance
Wonder why I can't reach you
Reckless communication
Helpless hypocrisy
Ruthless determination
Ever seeking mastery
How do we define humanity?
How do we define depravity?
How thin is the line between conflict and synergy,
comfort and suffering?
How do we define the dividing line?
How do we define morality?
How do we define insanity?
How thin is the line between faith and realty,
freedom and anarchy?
How do we define the dividing line?
A world full of woe,
how can one know where to stand?
A world full of fear,
the enemy draws near the gates
A world full of hope
light must prevail in the end
A world full of dreams
but dreams often flee with the waking
Looking back across a lifetime
Looking back across the span
Looking back at the person I once was
Looking back at the journey I began
