My mind is elsewhere

Not in the present nor the future

But in the past

I look to see my grave

Written on it are my years of life

Those years were good years

My life had not floated away

He would have not wept for me

If I was alive

My spirit would not have grown thin

But back then things were different

Things wouldn't have changed

Now I'm in the future

I see another grave

I look all around and all I see are graves

With the same names but different years

My mind is still elsewhere

But my heart, forever stays the same
