Χρόνος- Hronos(Time) Time is passing by and never coming back, like water in a river that only knows what's ahead. It leaves behind memories but also forgets everything never judges moments and yet chooses in the end Whom will it allow to exist inside it, to live, to flow and Whom will it forget? Dreams and love affairs to whom it will refuse... ...it will refuse I don't remember myself to ever have chosen the fate of people even though I know what's right. I just roll and go as I am meant to. You keep on going, Time and you don't come back You are searching for the sea from inside the deep land. And you leave memories behind but you also seem to forget everything. You never judge moments And yet you choose and decide whom you will allow to stay inside you to live and flow and whom you will forget, dreams and love affairs to whom you will refuse... ...you will refuse. I want you to believe what I'm about to tell you. I am just Time and I don't get to choose. Ask the gods to find out what their plan is. I don't remember myself to ever have chosen the fate of people even though I know what's right. I just roll and go as I am meant to. ...time, why are you leaving... ...I am flowing by...
