Shapes

Of things before my eyes

Just teach me to despise

Will time make man more wise

Verse 2:

Here

Within my lonely frame

My eyes just hurt my brain

But will they seem the same

Come tomorrow

Will I be older

Come tomorrow

May be a soldier

Come tomorrow

Will I be bolder

Than today?

Verse 3:

Now

The trees are almost green

But will they still be seen

Where time and tide have been

Fallen

Into your passing hands

Please don't destroy these lands

Don't make them desert sands
