This was an attempt at a vocal prog trance song that turned out poppier than I had initially planned. It includes "Saturn" from Mega Man V on the Gameboy.
lyrics
people stay
and people go
in distant lands you and I may be
come what may
I hope you know
that you will never be a foreigner to me
you'll never be a foreigner to me
the time was served
and lessons learned
i thought i'd earned
a new reprieve
what i wanted
became so haunted
take it granted
for life unseen
every action
has reaction
and life in traction
cannot stay
despite my efforts
still there comes hurt
when one's life-worth
takes them away
time seems to always have its way I've found
life needs to always change the pace somehow
I have to lose what I have found every time
but I cannot hold you down, no, I won't try
people stay
and people go
in distant lands you and I may be
come what may
I hope you know
that you will never be a foreigner to me
if in time
you do return
I won't forget what you mean to me
a friend of mine
you can be sure
you know you'll never be a foreigner to me
you'll never be a foreigner to me
the life within
starts to breath in
it heals again
gets past the scars
from the start
with breaking hearts
it is quite hard
always so far
time seems to always have its way I've found
life needs to always change the pace somehow
I have to lose what I have found every time
but I cannot hold you down, no, I won't try
people stay
and people go
in distant lands you and I may be
come what may
I hope you know
that you will never be a foreigner to me
if in time
you do return
I won't forget what you mean to me
a friend of mine
you can be sure
you know you'll never be a foreigner to me
it's not so different
all those times as a child
waiting for the very end
though I know it takes a while
I want to be whole
so I just lose control
as we all let go
we learn about what lasts
sometimes we take it slow
and sometimes we take it fast
