Analysis of Ten Years is a world away
It's not just something to say
and I'm going out on the brink
To say time just passes you by
if you take the time out to think.
Think about what I am saying.
Think about the bills you were paying
Think about the clothes you were wearing
or the place you worked ten years from this day.
You could be in a disaster or even in a war
every ten years you are someone
that you wasn't before
Weather you look to the future
or what your wearing today
one thing is for certain
ten years is a world away.
