That as time passes by
Every minute makes a difference.
A difference with what I want to do, what I want to be and who I am
Time defines my future.

You look back at what you thought would be you in the future
And realize that it isn't who you have become.

Today I realized,
After all the smoke clears,
That the explosion has cleared away a few people from around me.
And the people left are the ones who would always be there to protect me.

You look back at who you thought would be in the future
And realize that it isn't who you thought would be there.

Today I realized
That with all the love I have
I loved someone who does not love me back the same, and probably never will

You look back at what you thought you had in the future
And you realize that it isn't what you thought you would have now.

Today I realized
That someone loves me with all their heart out there
And would continue to love me for who I am forever.

You look back at who you thought you had in your future
And you realize that it isn't who you thought would be there.

Today I realized
That I have to live my days by the minute
And not by future plans.

I look back at what I thought and who I thought would be in my life
And I realize that what and who I thought would be there is not there at ALL!
