It's even more beautiful in song form. I suggest checking it out...

I wonder why we are the way we are

And why we only love each from afar

This is how we are fighting time

You spend your days watching the door

Yeah you spend your whole life waiting

But you don't know what for

You have everything you need right here

Still you want more

Oh this is how we are fighting time

Well I didn't come here

Looking for a soul

And I'm tired of watching dust collecting on a bowl


I'm a spirit trying to be human


I'm just a spirit trying to be human

But I'm thinking this is how we are fighting time

You hold on to yourself

You're afraid that you might get left behind

And so you hide your eyes

You're afraid that the light

Will make you blind

But its time to shine

Yes it's time to believe in what you know, and you don't need strength to be strong


Time to believe in what you know, No you don't need strength to be strong, Time to believe in what you know
