The Way

Lyrics:

The Way
Feel myself falling to one-way steps, can’t even notice, like I knew nothing that I did.
Feel myself, running beside myself, still disconnected like I knew nothing like I did.
And I, can’t help but notice, I’m sending myself to the dim, dark and cold.
And I, furrow my own brow, losing my way now to the dim, dark and cold.

Giv’n my breath, follow my own pretext, can’t find no substance, I can’t find no mercy here at all,
But I dream my way, out of these lifeless days, spin myself forward, screaming and kicking just like I knew what to do…
And I, so prone to carry, shedding my burdens and liking the view.

And it is what it is; a flicker or flame, I know it now, I know it by name and it’s burning inside; I carry inside something that resembles the truth
And I know, oh somehow I must seize the day, she says to me ‘this is not judgement day’ but I know too well- I’ve fought with regret before.
It hangs in the air, yeah it steals all my sleep,
It wears at me slowly, grinds at my teeth,
But I know I’ve turned things even though she can’t see;
I hear their soft voices and fall at their feet and I say, and I say…
I’m on my way.
