The Time To Do Better Lyrics

I’m paying the price.
Through my bars I observe the horizon.
While I'm sleeping I cannot stop thinking
That I am a prisoner, sealed by death.

The end gave me short notice
And woke me up in tears.
I lightly touch the furniture of the room
And the stars come with me.

Why can I barely see these halos of light ?
Do I have to face this hellish barrier ?

If I could escape for once,
I would take the time to do better.
Don’t forget the end is near,
I bear the burden of what I’ve done.

Learning to control myself,
Hoping it won't come back,
I lock up my moods and feelings
By fear of liking his bad side.

Why can I barely see these halos of light ?
Do I have to face this hellish barrier ?

If I could escape for once,
I would take the time to do better.
Don’t forget the end is near,
I bear the burden of what I’ve done.

Even if I feel bad I've got to respect my own people
Because I won’t control myself
If they lay hands on my soul
Where are the principles ?
There’s no Justice.

Let the voice of my mind speak
And let myself go.
Each second is a mountain to climb,
If the devil gets away
I won’t be able to stop him.

Breaking the pact I took with myself
I cannot bear this constant pressure any more.
The deadline is coming soon,
How to contain myself,
To stop this agony of suffering ?

If I could escape for once,
I would take the time to do better.
Don’t forget the end is near,
I bear the burden of what I’ve done.

If I could escape for once,
I would take the time to do better.
Don’t forget the end is near.
