You don’t know what it’s like  in my shoes
Instead of love songs, I sing the blues
From heart ache to heart burn
I watch and I learn

Searching the globe
Until my heart implodes
Caving into my chest
No more and no less

Alone all my life
Through trouble and strife
I bow my head
Dejected, I fled

I ran and I ran
All over this land
I ran for cover
Over and over

Lost in a spiral
I’m stuck in denial
My cup runneth over
Hoping to discover

The meaning of life
But the sun is too bright
The moon and the stars
I’m stuck behind bars

Imprisoned since birth
Scouring the earth
For love understood
And for the greater good
