The End Of An Era

"my searching eyes have never been so intrigued to see you go
i guess you found a way to make ten minutes last forever
with each passing moment we drift further away
closer to our chosen paths
but i can't help remembering what was...
what might have been
but i have been warned by those who have passed this way before
and to them i am grateful
and as for you, i am also grateful
and i pray you find the peace
you've been longing for"
