Only Time Will Tell

Late at night I lie away too scared for sleeping
That the fragile bond between us disappears
We are like two worlds colliding that can never understand
One another’s fundamental needs
Is it a crime that I’d like nothing more than scream at
The injustice that is governing our lives
I feel so helpless as if my hands were ties
With my feet firmly shackled to the floor
Only time will tell
If our love is strong enough
Can you feel the tremors coming fate has sent for us
Only time will tell
If our love lasts long enough
Will we survive the coming storm
Time and again I will dissect my secret feelings
Worried that erosion’s taken hold
Am I still in love our simply living an illusion
Too afraid of dying on my own
I close my eyes and conjure up the others options
To lay down my arms and cease the fight
Devoid of purpose I’d squander a pointless life
On absolutely nothing worth the while
