Children

I stood there silent
As I watched the violence unfold before my eyes
The children dancing, just like I did on that random Friday
On the back pew near the hallway, I gained my mother’s eyes
«Son,» she said, «it's all in season’s time»
Rainfall, but we never saw the clouds
But we see it all so clear now
The passing years, the current fears make sense
Best friends, but we never spoke aloud
It was as simple as the sea
My brother, you were kind
But now I see, it’s all in season’s time
And I tend to hold on just a little too long
To seasons as they change
Nostalgic mind cannot find peace today
(It's just the way the river flows)
I won’t fight the tidal wave
I can’t control the current, it’s all just a moment
I’m drowning in yesterday
Nightfall, but we never saw the dusk
But we see it, it’s so real now
The passing years, the current fears make sense
Lovers, oh, so strong on the outside
Oh, but the winter proved us weak
My darling, you were kind
But now I see, it’s all in season’s time
So take me away from yesterday
So take me away from yesterday
So take me away
Oh, take me away
So take me away
So take me away
So take me away
Take me away
