It flashes before my eyes like a neon sign (
Visions of everything in life that could ever be
And every word rips inward back through time
Reflections living still
A burrow of possibility

Calling back for reinforcements
But no one arrives
No retreat from the finite waging
Forward forever
I'm alive

(Chorus)
And it feels like so much
Always hanging over me
The weight of the world descending
As I struggle underneath
And it feels like so much
Always hanging over me
I just need to know
That I'm not down here alone

And on this hill I'll make my stand
For the hour is close at hand
This is the moment, this is the time
And with each heartbeat lives a chance
But the hour so close at hand
Defines in a moment a purpose to life

I am the sentinel
I am the sentinel

Each action carried out lives on for an eternity
It ripples across a pool of scattered light
Where every choice is cloaked in moments of uncertainty
If you look within you'll see the monsters
Hiding deep inside your own life

(Chorus)
