Immortal

   Immortal

Time, it chases,
Time, erases
It feels no elation,
Takes no vacation
It is supreme...
It devours everything
Time can mend you,
Time can break you
It does just what...
It wants to!

Time's the enemy,
It is not friendly
Time wants to take,
Everything from me...
Time's the enemy,
But what it doesn't see...
Is that it can't take my words...
They are immortal...

Time, it molds you,
Into something you are sure,
You would not choose
And you can't fight it,
You can only ride it,
Because if you fight time...
You always lose
You stare it in the teeth,
Everyday!
But time doesn't go away!

Because time's the enemy,
It is not friendly
Time wants to take,
Everything from me...
Time's the enemy,
But what it doesn't see...
Is that it can't take my words...
They are immortal...

Burning forver!
Never severed!
From just who I am...
Time's the enemy,
But time's afraid of me
Time knows just what I seek...

Because time's the enemy!
It is not friendly
Time wants to take,
Everything from me!
Time's the enemy!
But what it doesn't see!
Is that it can't take my words,
They are immortal!
They will live on,
As the seasons turn...
As the whole world burns...
Because I am immortal!
