Jag Panzer - Twilight Years lyrics

[lyrics by Harry Conklin] Ticking of time echoing into a memory Spending our lives on a wheel Spinning around unaware of it's heading Unguided course with the future as the keel Out of the past into the millennium Mastering life we're facing our fears The challenge is ours into the millennium We live in the twilight of the twilight years Lessons well learned so many retained Unless they are used they are lost Our conscience our guide on a new journey History's blood is the cost Silently we walk down a corridor of shame Unseen footsteps lead the way Finger points to a sea, a sea of voices screaming Go back, unlock our souls and throw away the key At our journeys end will hope still survive ? Who will walk this earth when we've all gone ? Time goes on unceasing every second is new hope Another circle of life another chance to change A new age is born out of despair New hope for this world is alive Our children will lead us on a new journey History's lessons will guide The future uncertain what dangers await ? Is the ticking of time on our side ? In this world so much hatred, sorrow and greed Only the strong will survive !
