In Another Time

So, here we are in the years

All the past is a dream

Can't believe that I'm here

Now, seems so hard to recall

Did it happen that way?

Did it happen at all?

Here we are, win or lose

Good and bad, fast and lose

Here we are, black and gold

In another time

Dust, on a mirror turned black

The reflection is flawed

All the mirrors are cracked

Strange how the glass seems to sing

But the words are like death

They could be anything

Here we are, win or draw

Badly used, badly scored

Here we are, gone before

In another time

Look through the eyes of the mask

Tell me what do you see

Can you make out the facts?

Cold in the arms of the dead

I still hear them talk

Telling jokes in my head?

Here we are before the dawn

Cold and black, death and scorn

Here they are, lust and grief

To oversee the crime

In the days before the plague

Never spoke, eyes like blades

Here and now, fear and grief

In another time
