balance

[Mafioso]

like a chest buried beneath the sea
so many search but only few will find
many will pay the price, go the distance
pick up the tab and pay the fees
but even still, only few will see.

i've held it in my hand before
no up and down just straight forward
not lost in the past wishing things would last
nor chasing tomorrow running from sorrow
i just stood in the day and watched the world play.

now i don't know where i am
the day passes faster than my mind can grab
i stare into the past until i lose my path
and forget tomorrow i'm drowning in sorrow.

change can not be far away.
