The middle of nowhere
Where do you go from here?
When the path is no longer clear
when the trees whisper in forgotten tongues
and the wind blows in words that have stung
and the bird's song is no longer sung.
where do you go from this place?
when the sun threatens to burn your face
and the moon ceases to rise
and the sweat burns your youthful eyes
forcing you to see past your own disguise
yes, where do you finally at last go?
When everything is foreign that you know
and the ideas no longer make sense
and your opinion is left on the fence
where your beliefs hang in suspense
where do you go when you no longer care?
Find the road to your soul, lost in there
lest you find the lonely space is all you share
with those lost in the middle of nowhere.
