Subject: This Is The Way It Has To Be

Draw your mark out upon my lawn
Go on, cry until you cannot cry no more
Walk out on the skyway and perhaps you could see
Some gyration of happiness deep inside of me
I remember long ago when I had just been born
Momma was holding me gently on her lap
There was so much she said that I just wished I understood
I never could remember anything throughout my childhood
Even now, the words just don�t seem familiar to me�
But I guess this is the way it has to be�

I try to imagine the time
When dinosaurs were dominantly divine
They roamed all across the land
Then they all disappeared in a flash of their eyes
And since then, we�ve been staring through a window of random thought
Theories just bounce off our heads like ping-pong balls
I tried to escape myself and float away back into the past
Confront these gargantuan wonders and answer these questions at last
But I just can�t go back and see everything�
But this is the way it has to be�

Yet, there are times when I feel myself flowing through
The gateway to the future and see just how much I grew
I see endless possibilities
Even things that can�t be touched or can�t be seen
I can see skyscrapers standing high above the sky
People taking odysseys through all of the universe
But this image I can see is still a zillion football fields away
I just contain all these wonders at bay
There is so much that we have yet to see�
But this is the way it has to be�

Life is a twisted place indeed�
