I don’t know if I can do it
Not any more
Few ages ago …
It seems since my ship left the shore
’
Im not sure if I can do it
It can’t be done
Believe me when I say
I think I’m not the one
I just can’t do it
Don’t ask me why
The old tower’s clock, had stopped
There’s just not enough time to buy
I just can’t do it
I can’t fake that smile
It happens well often
People change with time
I just can’t do it
But I have a mile to go
Through the land of stony roses
Where lizards live under warm snow
You just can’t do it
The old man once said
You know, they all lose a thing
One lost a heart and another dropped a head
He just can’t do it
They said and looked at each other
He can’t cross the river of silence
Another fool, why should we bother
He just won’t do it
A father told his son
No human rides the phoenix
… Slaying dragons .. without a sword or a gun
… And although we may have few suns
... Everyday
... You may only choose one
He just might do it
Said a blind man from the crowd
You may feel if you close your eyes
You won't see your chains rooted to the ground
…You may hear well if you’re blind like me
... A man’s heartbeat is more than a sound
Do it
I said to myself, as I left the shore
What to lose
More than you’ve already lost before
I gazed at them
As my ship’s course was all set
Don’t have faith in me
Old man
But you haven’t seen the last of me
… YET!
