Beyond the Past - Jay Ray

I’ve seen how far we’ve gone and its breaking me

I’ve held on to this stone and it’s taking me down

Untroubled childhood bliss, turns to pain and suffering

It’s just a way of preparing you for the cold realities of everyday strife

It’s just way of ingraining you with this grand subservient way of life.

Now there’s a void in my heart, but I could not go beyond

And the way I used to be feels so far away

It’s just way of ingraining you with this self-unsustaining of life

There’s no escaping our fate

The course remains the same

It’s just a way to bring you under their control and tell you that it’s for

your own good

It’s just a way it was in a time of life when you were the one who will never

be understood

I won’t sign my life away

I won’t sign my life away

Now there’s a void in my heart, but I could not go beyond

And the way I used to be feels so far away

It’s just way of ingraining you with this self-unsustaining of life

There’s no escaping our fate

The course remains the same

When there was nothing but time for our lives to begin

There was never need for us to pretend

When there was nothing beyond the confines or our skin

And all that followed will die in the end

There was nothing but time in our hands for our lives to begin

We always were ourselves, there was no need need for us to pretend

There was no need for reaching beyond the confines of our skin

What’s left is memories and the rest will die in the end

Can you feel in your heart, it’s calling you from inside and telling you not to

be afraid

Can you feel when your heart is waking up the truth and telling: «There's still hope for a change»
