TIME IS FADING AWAY

**********************
I woke with in the darkness
moon light in my eyes
was it just a dream i had or did i really die ?

Looking down from high above
was this pattern in a dream
the color was fading from my mind
as this song came to me

Time is fading away
Noah knew when to build that boat
and finally sail away

No, it won't last forever
the darkness is complete
you can lead a horse to water
but you can not make him drink

there was a battle going around me
the generals fought and planned
men were going off to war
It's a patriotic game

But there is no future in the grave
when you're dead you're dead and gone
mother earth still takes you in
an a priest says your soul is saved

I was soaring high in spirt
as i looked down on this game
Death was the victor
as the darkness covered the land

Deceit and destruction
Hate takes many forms
win or lose it's all the same
when your dead your dead for sure.

Now the birds all sing at midnight
the moon shines blood red at dawn
the stars have fallen from heaven
and this is one of my songs


Time is fading away
Noah knew when to build that boat
and finally sail away
No, it won't last forever
the darkness is complete
you can lead a horse to water
but you can not make him drink

Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed
from heaven against all ungodliness
************************
This dream was full of death and dying.
no one seemed to care
death was the only victor
ethnic hate filled the air

my spirt was soaring higher
it was clear inside that dream
the word once written down
was being fulfilled that day

Time is fading away
Noah knew when to build that boat
and finally sail away

No, it won't last forever
the darkness is complete
you can lead a horse to water
but you can not make him drink

Young men feed the earth
with their blood as they're slain
Death is the victor
no one wins this game

no one who ever plays
the game of war ever stays the same
hate is the only victor
and some priest says they are saved

My spirt was soaring higher
as the evil flowed over the land
a hundred lies prevent the truth
to bind us in darkness again

living and dying
there is no future believing a lie
the leaders speak in darkness
to bind us to their lying again

living dying
a hundred lies shadow the reasons
lying an denying
bind us to the darkness again

Time is fading away
Noah knew when
to build that boat
and finally sail away

No, it won't last forever
the darkness is complete
you can lead a horse to water
but you can not make him drink

and the unrighteousness of men,
who suppress the truth in unrighteousness.

***************************

my head was full of senseless slaughter,
hurricanes ravaged the land
the tide was rising everywhere
a world had gone insane

famine, drought, hurricanes,
earth quakes rocked the lands
time is getting shorter
an most don't understand

living & giving
is easy when your passions a flame

living or dying
it doesn't matter
when you are gone

lying & denial
bind us to the god of this season

lying or dying you are a stranger
to the darkness no more.

A sleep in the darkness
star light in my eyes
woke to the sound of thunder
woke up in the light
