lyrics

Verse 1: (Solicit)
It seems like not long ago this life was a breeze.
We had it so easy, and I was easy to please.
Before this whole world was full of disease.
Before I thought about releasing these feelings on CDs.
But now it's different, I'm afraid I've changed my mind.
I feel like this whole life ain't been s*** but wasted time.
You pay the price when the stakes are high and I'm afraid of heights, but we're all just pawns in the game of life.
I played my part from the start, this ain't for the faint of heart.
It was great till it came apart, but 48 bars cant explain all the pain and scars from the flaws of an aimless cause.
And It's gonna be a long ride, so you drive slow.
You'll know it's near the end when it turns into a slideshow.
So check my vitals, seeing visions in cycles.
I ride in idle, spiteful, until my eyes close.

Chorus: (Maria Connors)
I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone.
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity.
Dust in the wind.
All we are is dust in the wind.

Verse 2: (Solicit)
We used to have so far to go on this long ride, but now those old scars are so hard to hide.
Who really knows how much we got left, but it doesn't take much to make some progress, does it?
Because all I ever see is everybody faking it, and taking s***.
I'm sick of the ungratefulness.
I can't even express how much I really hate this s***.
I f***** hate the s***, but I'm sick of being negative.
And I guess that's it. It's all in how you cope, but what would you do if you lived everyday broke, man.
Some of your own family thinks you're a joke but when they nodded their heads to your songs, you were dope.
They said it with the wrong tone.
Even in your own house sometimes, you feel so far from home.
We travel such a long road in life but we all sing the same song, and we know how the song goes.

Chorus: (Maria Connors)
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea.
All we do crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see.
Dust in the wind.
All we are is dust in the wind.
Ohh, ooh, oh

Verse 3: (Enormus)
So close your eyes.
Love it or want to cry, have it or want to die.
We're stuck in life, you must decide what path that you want to ride.
Whether you follow your heart, whether you're living lies.
The only thing that lasts forever is the earth and the open sky.
To all soldiers, it's no decision if it's do or die.
Some people hate to live and then they gripping suicide.
Listen and you will find.
You're in the wind, you're drifting into time.
Scriptures of the mind define the elixir of divine.
Paint pictures with my rhymes.
Envision the infliction of my rise.
Driven with my pride, not fiction the addiction in my eyes.
Committing all these crimes, wishing I could give a better life.
Give my money to my family so they can do it right.
I'm realizing all the things I love that money couldn't buy.
I've realized that when the reaper comes, I have to say goodbye.
So stay strong when everything's long gone, because none of it means anything. Don't hang on.

Chorus: (Maria Connors)
Now don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky.
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy.
Dust in the wind.
All we are is dust in the wind.
Dust in the wind.
All we are is dust in the wind.
