Thought
I was moving forward
And I
knew which way to go
Thought
I didn’t have to stop for directions
That my
confusion wouldn’t show
Wondered
many times if I knew what I was doing
If I
even had a master plan
Only to
find my grip on reality
Slipping
through my opened hands
Once
there was a time not too long ago
When a
smile would melt my heart
Now I’m
keeping time with a broken watch
Keeps
taking me back to the start
Heavy
feet pounding the broken pavement
A
sleeping city lost in her dreams
Find it
harder to hold it all together
When it
keeps unravelling at the seams
Soul… where are you?
I turn to look to see if you’re there
To find you’ve faded in the air
Heart… are you true?
Somehow I’ve gone and lost my way
Chasing the sun through yesterday
Heading out alone to a distant horizon
And the road ahead isn’t bending
Looking for a guide to lead the way
Holding onto hope when that light is fading
While
closing my eyes at night to sleep
Find the
thoughts in my head churning
Trying
to find absolution somewhere
To absolve
my conscience burning
The
bread has gone dry, the wine sour
The
table has yet to be cleared
None of
the guests have arrived
And the cups
have disappeared
Turned
out of bed hit the street
Made my
way slowly through an empty world
Watching
strangers faces passing by me
My
breath in smoke trails curls...
Soul… where are you?
I turn to look to see if you’re there
To find you’ve faded in the air
Heart… are you true?
Somehow I’ve gone and last my way
Chasing the sun through yesterday
Only to fade away…
...to nothing
The dust
settles
The
crows fly
I’m
looking for that place
Where the sea meets the sky
And
maybe then
I can be
free
