Chasing Time lyrics by Fates Warning

I've watched in silence, without seeing
As a stranger within me grew
Detached and distanced from the day
While youth's precious years flew

Chasing time through the empty skies
Of endless hours, living for the future

Lyrics Provided By ZoneLyrics.net

Visions of brighter days to come
Kept the shadows from my sight
Made the present bearable
And obscured the fading light

Chasing time through the cold void
Of solitary days, living for the future

Today is within my reach
And tomorrow is so illusive
But I'm still chasing time
Through increasing disillusion

Forever living for the future of an illusion
