In Flames “Come Clarity” from Come Clarity

In Flames: Come ClarityI’m now closer to 40 than 30, I am not sure if it’s appropriate to call myself a young man.

When I was younger, when I envisioned myself at my current age, I never expected to be as clueless as I am today.

I’m not bad, not bad at all — there’s so much I’ve learned, so much I’ve figured out.  I am more whole and more complete than I have ever been.

Yet, I still feel like I’m barely getting started.  My head is full of dreams yet to realize.

Rushing through 30
Getting older every day
By two, drawing pictures of innocent times
Can you add colour inside these lines?

I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don’t want to live in a dream one more day

Sure, if we change our perspective
I’m certain, I would change today
I’m certain, it will change our ways
Would things fall into place?

I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don’t want to live in a dream one more day

I’m open, and I’ve shed much.

Being lighter, I feel that I am getting ready to fly.

I knew all along that I could — I had just forgotten.

I’m ready to be done, being an unrealized dream.
