Memoirs from the Book of Secrets
(A lone voice whispers.)
Have you ever looked deep into the mirror and wondered if you're really
done enough
Left something tangible something future generations can listen to
Have you ever looked deep into the mirror and wondered if you're really
done enough
Left something tangible something future generations can listen to
See or read through and make a fuss
A legacy of your vision or dreams
Stories they maybe can trace through a time when you were once young and free
Chasing life filled with deep dreams or drunk and lucid
Spilling stories whilst licked up on Loves delicious red wine
What do you see when you look really deep into the Mirrors of Time
Past all the makeup
Wrinkles
Beards or sad eyes that still might pine
One holiday a year
Warm smiles in the 2-week hot sun
Then back to work
Grinding hard through the year
Then back to work
Grinding hard through the year
For a return to your only perk
Is that the only legacy you're going to leave to describe your dreams
Is that the only legacy you're going to leave to describe your dreams
Is that the lonely story of your lifetime
Or are you going to reach deep into the breach
Place your chips on life's ever-spinning roulette
And create a new legacy filled with taking chances on newer challenges
They or you will never be ashamed to forget
