Threshold - The Man Who Saw Through Time lyrics

Your rating:

Someone told him he could see the future

From this moment to the end

If he found a place from where to view it

With a heart to comprehend

But every time he tries it feels about as wise

As jumping into space

Held down by a force

He knows he has no access to that place

A filter he can't erase



Yet he doesn't see the harm in knowing

All the things he has in store

Curiosity now overflowing

Off he sets to find the door

And everything he knew and everything he thought

Were ripples on the tide

For right out of the blue

He came upon the doorway open wide

So softly he stepped inside



It was a long enthralling night

Fascination filled his sight

As he gazed on all that's still to come

Many things should not be seen

Unless they choose to be

Or you find the place to view them from

And now his eyes were open wide



How he cried at all the pain

How he glowed at his success

He watched his life unfolding

How he hid from all the shame

How he laughed when he was blessed

His lows and highs beholding

But now he knew too much

The man who saw through time



So happy with his lot

He relaxed and soon forgot

All the struggles that would take him there

Now the future that he saw

Was darker than before

So he went and found the door again

And now his eyes were open wide



How he cried at all he saw

How he grieved for his success

He watched his life unfolding

Now his life brought only shame

Now unsure if he was blessed

More lows than highs beholding

For now he knew too much

The man who saw through time



All the things he thought he'd done

All the things he would become

All the things he dreamt and loved

Were ripples on the tide



All the things he thought he'd done

All the things he would become

All the things he dreamt and loved

Were ripples on the tide



Back at home he made a bold decision

Working harder than before

To obliterate that second vision

And find the other one he saw

And every time it hurt or felt a little worse

The more he fought the tide

So maybe he'll fulfill

Greater stories still

The man who saw through time
