Change the Rhyme - Temperance

I’ve always tried to be aware

But, you know, it’s not always easy

I often stop and meditate

I hesitate (I hesitate)

And I forget where I have been

And I breathe out, then I breathe in

But underneath my feet I feel

The cold ground (ground)

Time and again I face my past

Voices and colors dwelling my heart

And step by step I’ve got to know

That «better» for me is never enough

Sometimes I wish I could rewind

All my life and change the rhyme

I’ve always thought «I'll be prepared»

But, you know, it’s never easy

I often stop and wait alone

All alone, all alone

Time and again (time and again) I face my past

Voices and colors dwelling my heart

And step by step (and step by step) I’ve got to know

That «better» for me is never enough

Sometimes I wish I could rewind

All my life and change the rhyme

The surface can hide so much

But inside the scars still hurt

So many memories have dies

Buried deep inside my mind

I’d never let them re-emerge

Every new day just feeds my soul

I know the best has yet to come

This is the reason to go on!

Time and again I face my past

Voices and colors dwelling my heart

And step by step I’ve got to know

That «better» for me is never enough

Time and again I let it go

But above all the present is gold

And the end I’ve got to know

That «perfect» for me is never enough

Sometimes I wish that I could see

Myself, the way I move and speak

With the eyes of someone else…
