Mission in Vain Lyrics

The purpose of my mission was to see the ocean.
I have not seen the ocean, I have not tasted the rain.
And if you will not let me land this airplane,
Trust my intuition then my mission's in vain.
Why does time keep moving on so quickly?
Why can't I distinguish dusk from dawn?
Why does time keep moving on so quickly?
Why does time keep moving on?
Captain, I have come a great long distance
At my protector's insistence and I will not be detained.

Handcuffs cannot restrain my choices.
If we don't listen to our voices then our mission's in vain.
Why does time keep moving on so quickly?
Why can't I distinguish dusk from dawn?
Why does time keep moving on so quickly?
Why does time keep moving on?
