The Last Gasp

.

It's the last gasp

Of the tired and true

Just remember now

The focus isn't on you

It's the last gasp

Of a generation

That rained promises

On the newly unformed

Just remember how

All those promises made

Echoed down the decades

But all the plans you laid

Came unraveled in the end

With nothing left to defend

It's the last gasp...

Panting for air

We can't breathe

In the vacuum left unclear

The last gasp

From the distant past

Of a psychedelic utopia

Drowning in the present

To a flood of cornucopia

And an uncertain future

Be aware and live for today

Tomorrow is not promised

Don't let hippie dreams

Sweep you away

It's the Last Gasp

Within our grasp

The future is left

To those who know

Live it now...

Or let it go

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
