Album: Building Rome (1998)

Moment Of Truth


It's odd how we see things so perfectly clear when the hour of death is near
No time for untangling the web that's weaved no time
for claiming you don't believe no time for now it's the moment of truth .
It's strange how we talk of the things that we'll do
but can't seem to follow through .
Waiting for a better day waiting for fortune to come our way waiting
no more at the moment of truth
The dream of achievement from twilight years with the setting sun disappears
Opportunity came and went yesterday and taken or not left a price to pay .
Let's take advantage of this day
Our moment's not so far away
A reconstruction of body soul
and mind in preparation for the day we leave this life behind
How we use this life of pain determines what we have to gain .
It's strange how we talk of the things that we'll do
but can't seem to follow through .
And all that we should have comes perfectly clear when the hour of death is near
No time for untangling the web that's weaved no time for claiming
you don't believe no time for now it's the moment of truth .
The dream of achievement from twilight years with the setting sun disappears
Opportunity came and went yesterday and taken or not left a price to pay
Let's take advantage of this day our moments not so far away
How we use this life of pain determines what we have to gain...
