Lady karma shine your light on me here I am down here way down here robed in tattered clothes bleeding hands a broken nose stumbling stuttering muttering mumbling shine your light on me Lady karma shine your light on me Near to bursting seam-less ream-less close to losing everything my job my friends my mind as yet radically un-cleansed just a step away from the edge balancing on the precipice of the wedge lost in the darkest recess the corridors of the mind drunk on thorns the horns of plenty that you find left empty and bereft I failed the test lady karma shine your light Lady karma shine your light on me I was re-assessed more likely just depressed than a danger to any stranger and the homelessness I faced with quickening pace seemed at the time like ill gotten gain and luckless fate combined and yet it faded gracefully in the shadow cast by the midday sun it would have to wait and I go back to where this all began I felt your warmth around me wrap around me shine your light on me lady karma shine your light on me.
