INTJ - When is the Future?


A stranger in a crowd
Treading fire after dark

Lost in a city
Pulsing to the sound

Of the spirit and soul
A city that is breathing
Living through the cables
Alive across the wires

Faces without names
Playing devils and angels
Lit up by the strobes
Moving hypnotized

I caught your reflection
In the neon on glass
An electric silhouette
Against a static sky

It's a beautiful dream
It's a beautiful life
It's just a reflection
A world I must survive

We're children of the past
Who look beyond today
Designing the present
So when is the future?

We live in a dream
Keeping visions alive
It's just a reflection
A world that never dies

The image we create
Now image we designed
It's a beautiful life
So when is the future?

Time moves so fast
In a single direction
Fighting with the present
Racing from the past

We're searching for something
That can never satisfy
The reality of answers
When lives are on the line

I've waited a lifetime
For the age of wonder
A place that I remember
In a splinter of time

A stranger in a strange land
Caught in the flow
Still searching for answers
Among the neon lights

It's a beautiful dream
It's a beautiful life
It's just a reflection
A world we must survive

We're children of the past
Who look beyond today
Designing the present
So when is the future

We live in a dream
Keeping visions alive
It's just a reflection
A world that never dies

The image we create
Now image we designed
It's a beautiful life
So when is the future?

It's a beautiful dream
It's a beautiful life
It's just a reflection
A world that must survive

We're children of the past
Who look beyond today
Designing the present
So when is the future

We live in a dream
Keeping visions alive
It's just a reflection
A world that never dies

The image we create
Now image we designed
It's a beautiful life
So when is the future?

The Knight


It's not what you say, 
It's what you do, 
not what you've done.

It's what you fight for, 
what you flee from, 
what you stay quiet about, 
what you speak of.

It's not who you've been, 
It's what you build, 
what you fail to build, 
what you lay waste to. 

It's who you help 
and who you abandoned.
