persistence is key
suddenly the clock stops
 time halts in its tracks,
 on the verge of moving to the next minute, the next hour
 pressure lurks on the tip of the hand
 
 and i wait and
 stare and
 silently pray
 until the hand moves again to the next day
 minutes ticking
 in synchronous harmony
 not skipping a beat while
 going its way around the hours
 
 don't be the one to stop
 on the next beat
 next to the next hour
 time is precious, can't you see
 
 just move on
 under the stars
 don't go searching
 going to the past
 end the past and start anew
 
 me, i try to go on
 even on those days that suffocate
 
 following the direction
 of infinite dreams
 reality seizes to exist
 
 being surrounded by clouds
 emotions and thoughts dissolve
 in the air next to rain
 not going to stop because of you
 going to continue until the end
 
 me, i try to go on
 even on those days that suffocate
