Twilight - Intellectual

[Chorus]

Ain’t no stoppin’ when we doin’ this

Who is the luminous figure lurking, emerging only in the twilight?

When the sky becomes a certain shade

When the night it turns to day

He perceives with the keen eyesight

Now that I’m growing older now

The time is like a rolling boulder

How can I begin to slow it down before I say it’s over now?

See it all flashing before my eyes in a fashion I never saw ‘cause it’s passing faster than you would imagine

Darker than you’ve ever seen a human being being seen

The clock as it spins so fast, it seems like I’m dreaming

This twilight of my life

Grim Reaper bringing his sickle to me as a fat lady singing

I’m lost in this smokey haze in a maze with so many ways

Decisions we all make as the song plays

And days go by and I’m so amazed I made it to this level

Life is a race car game with the pedal grinding to the floor of the arcade to the metal with the need for speed and no cause to be a rebel

I’m pushing the limit of the sky when I’m in it

I’ll be flying through the clouds so high in a minute

While my brain’s [?], my heart is staying in the dark and parked

If you look really close, you may see a spark

To light up the galleria, my mind’s museum

Depictions of pictures of my time as you see ‘em through your eyes and learn from my wrongs when I write

You can through songs see my life

Ain’t no stoppin’ when we doin’ this

Who is the luminous figure lurking, emerging only in the twilight?

When the sky becomes a certain shade

When the night it turns to day

He perceives with the keen eyesight

Now that I’m growing wiser

I can see the lies behind their eyes

The desire to find that fire within you is what I’m into

Continue the rite of passage as time vanishes fast in this vast land

The advantage is in the hands of the man who sits patiently waiting yet never hesitating when the time’s right

For he perceives with the keen eyesight

Looking out over what’s left when I write

You can through songs see my life
