Lyrics

[Verse 1, Progressive Rock, Philosophical, Male Narrator] Greetings, dear Lucilius, heed this song About a treasure we've had all along Time, our most precious commodity Forced away, filched, or lost thoughtlessly [Pre-Chorus 1, Reflective, Melodic Guitar, Syncopated Bass] Some moments torn, some gently fade Others slip by, a choice unmade But the worst loss, oh can't you see? Is time lost to carelessness, heedlessly [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Verse 2, Rhythmic, Syncopated Bass, Male Narrator] Who values time as they should do? Who counts each day, sees its true worth? We're dying daily, don't misconstrue Death's not ahead, it's here on Earth [Pre-Chorus 2, Ethereal, Harmonic Vocals, Philosophical] The years behind, in death's cold hands The future's not ours to command So seize today, don't wait, don't yield Tomorrow's promise is not sealed [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Instrumental Break, Progressive Solo, Ancient Vocals FX] [Verse 3, Reflective, Male Narrator] Nothing is ours, Lucilius, but time Nature's gift, fleeting and sublime Fools we are, to let it slide While guarding trinkets we cast aside [Pre-Chorus 3, Reflective, Melodic Guitar, Philosophical] We count our debts in coins and gold But forget the time that we've been sold A loan we can't repay, my friend Yet still we waste it, to no end [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Verse 4, Contemplative, Gentle Piano, Male Narrator] I practice what I preach, it's true My ledger's balanced, through and through I waste some time, I must confess But I know the cause of my largesse [Pre-Chorus 4, Reflective, Melodic Guitar, Philosophical] Don't wait to spare till the cask runs dry When dregs are all that meet the eye The amount is small, the quality poor Start saving time now, I implore [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Outro, Reflective, Male Narrator, Hope] From this day forth, let's make a vow To cherish every moment now For in the end, when all is spent Time well used brings true content [Instrumental Break, Ancient Vocals FX, Syncopated Bass] [Verse 5, Progressive Rock, Philosophical, Male Narrator] In ancient texts, wisdom resides Guiding us through life's shifting tides Seneca's words, a beacon bright Illuminate the darkest night [Pre-Chorus 5, Reflective, Melodic Guitar, Ancient Vocals FX] Time's river flows, relentless stream Dashing hopes and fleeting dreams Yet in its course, a chance to find Purpose clear, peace of mind [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Instrumental Break, Progressive Solo, Ancient Vocals FX] [Bridge, Contemplative, Gentle Piano, Philosophical] Each moment a gift, a chance to grow In wisdom's light, let your life glow The sands of time, a precious flow Embrace each breath, let your heart show [Pre-Chorus 6, Reflective, Melodic Guitar, Syncopated Bass] The past is gone, the future unknown But this moment's ours, we're not alone Cherish now, let worries cease Find in the present, lasting peace [Chorus, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Instrumental Break, Ancient Vocals FX, Building to Big Finish] [Big Finish, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] From dawn till dusk, let's celebrate The gift of time, don't hesitate With every second, we create A legacy, a cherished state Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Outro, Reflective, Male Narrator, Hope] For in the end, when all is spent Time well used brings true content [Big Finish, Anthemic, Full Band, Ethereal, Hope] From dawn till dusk, let's celebrate The gift of time, don't hesitate With every second, we create A legacy, a cherished state Hold every hour in your grasp Today's the day, don't let it pass Life speeds by while we postpone Time's the only thing we own [Outro, Reflective, Male Narrator, Hope] For in the end, when all is spent Time well used brings true content [Outro, Reflective, Male Narrator, Hope] For in the end, when all is spent Time well used brings true content
