(no subject)
I've made some mistakes
and the lesson I've learned
you can't cross the bridges you've burned.
I have to persevere
I can't ignore the truth that I hear
Searing energy
transmitted cosmically
and blasted into me from all points of infinity
Locked up in a cage
a prisoner of my mind
I take a look and run away
afraid what I may find
Forever searching for release
from the pain of the mundane
I'm watching my life flash by through a window pane
in the house that I built
out of the fear of rejection and lost dreams and guilt
The house sits vacant while renovations are being done
When I look at myself as a kid
I don't know why I did the things I did
I never thought I'd understand why I felt so alien.
I remember the doctors
they sure do like to talk
Sure we got a pill for his condition
which could deteriorate at any moment
but that's ok because we got a pill for that too
We've got pills for everything
Then I heard the ancient American drum beat
as the shaman spoke words of wisdom
written on the sands of time
And these words began to fall
through the
hourglass
of
my
mind
And I unbound myself and from there I began this journey
