Tearing down. I’m on the edge of town. Leaving tomorrow. Letting this start go. No more sound. Knowing of all I’ve found that only this hollow feeling will follow. I’m alright. I’m so tired. But I’m alive. Feeling low. But only tonight. I’m alright. I’m so tired. But I’m alive. Letting go starts in the light. You recite never again despite letting your heart go.
Been up for a while my child now and I’m unsatisfied. About the night you left me overanalyzed. Spent all of the night fighting waves that never calm or gain shore. I guess I wasn’t blessed enough to rest knowing no one’s keeping score. And I’ve been Falling Through. The air there is harder than landing. And I’ve been holding you. A trying time with your understanding. Been feeling a longing seeing that the sun will fall on you. You’ll see it’s a bit over me but I trust it’ll feel new. Since choosing a losing war I’ve been digging my skin. The game that has framed your fame is cashing out and caving in. But I’ve been falling through. The air there is harder than landing. And I’ve been holding you. Been a trying time with your understanding. And I’ve been molding you in a way you can say that you’re planning. And I’ve been falling through all the cracks that have lined where you’re standing.
Early afternoon reflections in the sun. Tell no one. About the life that cost us everything at once. On and on. Oh my precious wasted love. Early evening brings a night time full of fear. Oh my dear. Endless monotony the turning of the gears. Year By Year. Oh it’s hard to face you here. Hold it up alone. Waiting for your life to show up and bring you home. Listen dear your time has gone.
Digging holes. Moving slow. There’s a lot of time and lot’s to undergo. Minimal. In the road. Where to drop the line to stop the overflow. Cause there’s a light up ahead. We’ll Need To Fight. Or die instead. Cause there’s a light in my head. We’ll need to fight. Or lie instead.
There'll never be another tune to lead my life again oh no. Never be another song to fill my head. If I leave another, only fault spinning in my face again. If I laugh, another lonely siren ringing in my head. But In Time we'll fly into the night and never need again. The day will come when you won't have to hold your head alone. Before I went away I could not shake the feeling of undone. I'm not unhappy I just have some weight to shed. We could rediscover life's result, a sinner whispering amen. Some will fight to stay alive and live if only in your head. But in time we'll fly into the night and never need again. The day will come when you won't have to hold your head alone. The night is gone the day is done. The day will come when you won't have to hold your head low. If I need to go I know that you will never be alone. If I need to feel the empty up ahead. Never run for cover, know no vault is paralyzed forever then. Never pause another open life, never turning red. In time we'll fly into the night and finish feeling hard. The day will come when you won't have to hold a heavy heart. Another mind an empty start. The day will come when we won't have to force our lives apart.
If I started up today would you stop and turn me away. If I need a little hope, I guess I’ll take another road. Cause all this time you needed to write out of lines and faded. But fall behind and suffer through life. You said all this time was Wasted. If I ventured off to war and came back hoping to explore a chance to learn a little more would I find an open door. But all this time you needed to write out of lines and faded. Fall behind and suffer through life you said all my time was wasted. Feeling low as leaders boast self-congratulated. Emptied minds but I’m feeling fine. You know all your life was wasted.

Interlude
Hold it up don’t pass me by. Sound it out don’t ask me why. I’ve gotta lie. Came down while the lights were on. Told me I’m the only one. But they were wrong. They’re so wrong. If you’re wanting to leave I can only agree if you started a life in the sky far away from the line that I’ve drawn. If you’re wondering why I can only abide by unguarded. We can figure it out if you see me around. I’m Gone.
Build it up again. In time. Nothing lasts forever. Happiness will end. When you substitute with pleasure. It doesn’t matter where you go when you’re always taking the same road. It’s funny how you know it’s time to follow love or fall in line. Realize the Day Divides into something lost or nothing tried. It doesn’t matter where you go if you always carry the same load. Funny how we can’t decide to follow love or fall in line. Realize the day divides into something lost or nothing tried. Wait in line for life to guide. For every star to fall in line. Realize what’s left untried. The day may pass but stay in mind.
All it took was a word. Fumbling Around. The day shook from the blurr of sound. And your gaze plainly stated that I was wrong. Oh the day that your love was gone.
Sunrise. Misty light. Day breaks in another survival. Prolonged high skies. Everlasting sight. The morning brings an isolated reflection. It’s a lesson of life in balance even when we’re away. Wings dive free and light. Limbs bow in an airy arrival. Birdsong reprise effortless in flight. The beating of the locusts fall in a rhythm. The musicians remind us that out here were never alone. Streamlines clear and white dodging an unseen barrier. Hurried day and night. Hums to chill the air. The untouched leaves still cling in early December. And remember to feel it before someone takes it away. Dark days early nights winter warns of its arrival. Low light through the pines burst the horizon. The daytime ends a silhouetted rhythm with a prism. Reminds us that out here we’re Already Home.
If I leave enough alone. And give my life another home. Would it stay or even know. And fall beside The Wonder of it All. If I hold a little tight. And miss the nature of this life. Would I know it in the night and stall beneath the wonder of it all. But I’m on my way to letting go of yesterday. And we’ll all in time. So I’ll leave another dream tonight. If I overturn this stone. And live a life out on the road. Could I keep from feeling low. And crawl inside the wonder of it all. But I’m on my way. It’s gaining steam to be today. But tomorrow’s nigh. So I’ll leave another dream tonight. If it seems a little bright. I’ll miss you when I close my eyes.
