How did I end up here? I asked the darkness There was no response How did I end up here I asked the sun Fell asleep in its heat There was no response Running down to the river I fell to my knees The river talked non stop But I couldn't understand a word I ran to the ocean to find the heart portal at the last log Though I looked I could not find it anywhere Drove the long desert valley to the petroglyphs Ten thousand years old Written in a language I would never understand The full moon rises eclipses and moves on I open my mind How did I end up here I ask In the dark silence of the rising sun desert red By the river running to the ocean There is no response Again.

The Question
How did I end up here? I asked the darkness There was no response How did I end up here I asked the sun Fell asleep in its heat There was no response Running down to the river I fell to my knees The river talked non stop But I couldn't understand a word I ran to the ocean to find the heart portal at the last log Though I looked I could not find it anywhere Drove the long desert valley to the petroglyphs Ten thousand years old Written in a language I would never understand The full moon rises eclipses and moves on I open my mind How did I end up here I ask In the dark silence of the rising sun desert red By the river running to the ocean There is no response Again.
