Unfinished Business
Life is too full of unfinished business
 So many things have gone unsaid
 So many doors have been left unopened
 Too many stories haven't been read.
 
 All of our hearts have crinkled edges
 Our life's legacy has gone untold
 Through all the fear, the pain, the
 anguish
 The blood in our veins has too long 
 run cold.
 
 We yearn for light in a plane of 
 darkness
 Searching for some forgotten dream
 Looking for hope where it's been extinguished
 Learning that nothing is as it seems
 
 Trying to mask our true identities
 Our lies for so long we've accepted as facts
 Our hopes and dreams are packed up inside us
 Making a huge, giant, mile-high stack
 
 Of unfinished business that isn't quite done
 Piled up in the dark where it can't see the sun
 Memories and secrets and warm deep-down dreams
 All of them waiting for days yet to come
 
 When the unfinished business is finally complete
 It's dusted and polished.  Watch how it gleams!
 The doors have been opened, words have been spoken
 Finally fulfilling those long ago dreams.
