Coming and going used to be so easy I wonder why I cant find my way these days Questions asked were never hard Is it in my head? I pick up the phone and hesitate I know what the trouble is Every word I say is history It's not that simple Connected in a way are we Unspoken silence shatters my mind Passing day by day Yesterday is now long since gone I hear my history when I sleep I know now where I am A place of confusion I beg for direction Unable to concentrate Single thoughts pierce me Worries take their place Take a number For a moment I think in peace Memories fade from within Never misplaced Always the never, here inside Ample time goes by Hanging within this moment Turn the hands back for one more show My brain will no longer play along I feel like I am being followed Every turn I make Illusions run deep Fractures keep me hollow I fill this day like every other Working inside from under me Set aside my thoughts for today All mixed up are we "What we have here is a failure to communicate" From the movie "Cool hand luke", one of my favorites; |
