I once had
A fine reputation
All wrapped in
so many obligations
So I let it fall
Somewhere beside the road
I no longer carry
That heavy load
Time stands still when I'm walking with you
Even in the midst of a storm
Bullets and shrapnel fly around my head
But none of that matters anymore
I can wear the insults
I can bear the pain
I can be that statue
In the pouring rain
I may seem a poor man
No glitter to my way
But I will have this treasure
For the rest of my days
Time stands still?
Don't know where I'm going
And I care less where I'm from
I've got a friend makes me
Feel I do belong
Never thought that i could
Find such happiness
Even in the midst of all my
Humanness
Time stands still?
