Once again you're in a far off place
Where you never can put a name to a face
What lies before us in the next 8 weeks
After spending 20 days applying bandages to leaks.
It never seems like you have enough time
Leaving home feels like a crime.
You begin to wonder if its worth it at all
Blind-folded, answering to a strangers call
When thing go wrong as they sometimes will
The road your trudging seems all uphill
When you think you've just about had enough
With blistered feet, your mind tells you,no its just too tough.
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
You ask yourself "how long" and "why"
Slowly your time is ticking away
Your on your knees,feeling like you can't last the day.
Just throw in the towel, its not that hard
It only takes two words and a 'Thankyou' card
You can't remember why you began
You should've thought no, for the time being I'll hang.
Your spinning around, the fuse is lit
With plenty of reasons to give in and quit
But then you remember,you begin to cry
You were so inocent, there was no need to lie
When asked what it was that changed your mind
"What I was looking for, I couldn't find
I looked for reason, forgetting my heart."
The sweat,blood and tears turned into art.
Success is failure turned inside out
The voice of counfusion in your self doubt
You never can tell how close you are
You may be near when all seems afar
Stick to the fight when your hardest hit
You don't want to regret the words "I quit"
Your goals set high, you feel free to dare
A few years later your off your knees and already there.
 
Baily, an excellent and thoughtful song! I am well impressed - have you got music for that too? If so, what sort of style is it?

i got the biggest giggle outta that.. heheheh.. damn pot smoking.
 
nwaves- no, i don't have any music for it, i just put words on paper. i had never even thought of it as a song.but if you have any ideas, you can play with it and see what works.
 
cand-E bamber, my bro and me often say stupid things to each other to try to get the other to laugh, and as soon as I said that, we just creased up

Baily, oops, I was a bit presumtuous there - I do write/make songs, but the quality of them vary... can't play an instrument but I've got a keyboard, and Music 2000 on my PC, so thanks for the invite; I'll have a little play with what you've written. Now you've had time to think about it, have you any preferances on song style?
