Strike a spark but the fire won't catch
Waking to a fate you did not expect
Put in good karma but can't cash that check
Despite your aims you can't evade
The dead ends
Severing your visions in shreds
And cutting you off
And spitting you out
Without a map
And the path is lost
Then darkness starts to swarm you
Can't see your hands before you
Time ceases to exist
Fading faster as you slip your grip
And once you get the hang of it
It all shifts
Circling each day like a mouse in a maze
If only a bird's eye view could show you the way
To glean from each mistake and not become its prey
The crowd awaits your great escape
To the unknown, a new home
For your true form, or your delusions
Of what you think that others think
That you should be doing
Beyond the dead ends
Severing your rhythms in fragments
And cutting you off
And spewing you out
Without a beat
And the time is lost
Just tap your foot to find it
And you'll be reminded
Of how your body used to move
Before you had to pay your dues
Now what has become of you
Just tell yourself it's alright
Though it might be contrived
And all in your mind
To just fall in line
Is not in my design
It's okay to
Not know the way through it all
And those who claim to
You can trust about as much
As any old point of view
When the direction changes
The whole landscape rearranges
By the intentions and the angles
That'll send you on your way
To an early grave
Or be the saving grace
You half believe in
You gotta know right now
'Cause it was never said out loud
Let's get the record straight
I am not one to wait too long
So let's get it all out in the air
Do you really care
For that which you cannot compare
Keep your heart close to home
After all that's all we really know
Add up all of the little things at hand
And all the time that's passed
Hang onto the friends who will last
Hold fast to all that which keeps you here
Beyond the glowing fear of death
What keeps your heart sincere
