The mystery of death before us Soon every night can bring the light, and close my eyes. Sometimes life in here is too limited Sometimes we don't care at all. Sometimes Time will change the familiar face. Brightest colours fade to grey The fear is real, one winter's day brings the clarity. I feel the time is catching up with us How many days until its hunger is satisfied? Leaving the final golden days We are the last amazing greys Hoping the young will lead the pack now. I can feel my heart is beating, still I can see you with my eyes, I still see. But I can't run the way my children can Can't accept the helping hand, leave me You are the strong one, trust in me You must lead instead of me, now There's no time, don't hesitate Or you will also find your fate. I feel the time is catching up with us How many days until its hunger is satisfied? Leaving the final golden days We are the last amazing greys Hoping the young will lead the pack now. In the eyes of every newborn, I see the future Life is just a phase. I close my eyes and see them all here beside me. The last amazing greys In the eyes of every newborn, I see the past times A familiar face I close my eyes and see them, waiting for me Amongst the amazing greys "Mountain seems to befall this last time, marking the moment" I have found my place I closed my eyes and joined them, guarding the young Amongst the amazing greys
