Behind my eyes
I keep my truth from you.
No one enters
This secret place,
The barrier only I embrace
Time is fleeting now
They say.
Take time to look inside
And face ... the change.
Dig down deep
To find the man I thought I was.
A dog on the treadmill panting,
The master pulls the leash, laughing.
Now I can't remember why
I needed to run, needed to try so hard.
One more time around
Is all I ask for now.
A star to steer by, wind to
Take me home again.
²Work hard in life boy,
There's paradise in the end.²
Year after year we struggle to gain
The happiness our parents never claimed.
They told us all we had to do
Was do what we're told, buy what was sold,
²Invest in gold, and never get old.²
One more time around
Is all I ask for now,
A star to steer by, wind to
Take me home again.
