Lyric

I cannot keep up with the rushing of the tide

The currents of the era leave me stranded on the side

Am I so foolish for falling far behind?

Lost inside the shadows of a fast-forward mind

The world is always racing in a high economic growth

Demanding speed and progress from the spirit of us both

It never learns to stop, it never takes a breath

Just running to the future, running out of breath

Looking from the high hill, down upon the street

The landscape is expanding far beneath my feet

The city and the era are growing grand and tall

But my own evolution hasn't moved at all

I’m standing in the freezing cold, stuck inside the space

While everything is moving at a terrifying pace

At this age in my life, I’m still chasing a dream

Am I so unsightly, drifting down the stream?

But because my heart is innocent, untouched by the rust

I cannot look away and leave my wishes in the dust

Yeah, the child inside of me refuses to forget

The dreams that haven't happened yet

The people who were close to me are rising to the sky

Becoming grand and powerful as the days go by

They turned into a presence, so near yet far away

A star across the galaxy that used to share my day

Everyone is marching, moving down the line

Crossing over borders that I cannot define

But my feet are frozen tight, heavy on the floor

I cannot find the strength to open up the door

The world keeps on advancing, stepping to the light

But my feet are stopped inside the night

Still dreaming in the dark

Still dreaming
