As I turn away from a life so grey   Where have all the flowers gone?   Just what went wrong?      Innocence, insanity, irony   Stone cold reality   Oh lord come and save me      Do you think we're forever?      I've been in tears   Hope has died in me   But now I'm here, I don't wish to leave      Trapped in time   A miracle of hope and change   A swirling mass no mercy now   If the truth hurts prepare for pain      Do you think we're forever?      The unseen, the eternal river of understanding   Persevering, dying escape   Forever tempting fate   Take me back      A flood of tears bonding my soul with my mind   A dream of love, reality closing in behind   As I close my eyes, the vision dies   As I bid my last farewell to mankind      The unseen, the eternal river of understanding   Persevering, dying escape   Forever tempting fate   Take me back
