The present tense

Living in the present tense

When you lose the past

The future makes no senseLiving in the present tense

When there's nothing to blame

No victim of consequence

Living in the present tenseCrawling out

Secure and confident

Imbued with innocence

Ready for the worldSuddenly

The view was more intense

Living in a different

Kind of worldYou're living

Living in the present tense

When you lose the past

The future makes no senseLiving in the present tense

When there's nothing to blame

No victim of consequence

Living in the present tenseSomething is said

It made me step outside

The moment eyes pan right

And left around my worldOpen yourself

Up to the possibility

Aware of some reality

Outside your worldIn a silent universe

The moment can be so real

You almost can't stand itIn a distant universe

Distracted from ourselves

You can't help but wonderIn a crowded universe

When the talking turns to noise

You almost start laughingYou're living

Living in the present tense

When you lose the past

The future makes no senseLiving in the present tense

When there's nothing to blame

No victim of consequenceLiving in the present tense

When there's nothing to blame

No victim of consequence
