The Destination Onward

(album: Long Day Good Night - 2020)

It's been long since I've been home
And like a dream these thoughts return to me
Remember how it felt although
I forget the names, and faces are strangers now

It's been hard since I've been gone
Watching from afar and growing further apart
I am here to let you know
I'm aware of the days, and now it's time to go home

I've stayed the path
One that I understand where I am
Ignored the cages set before
And chose the life that I was offered

The page forever altered, songs left unsung
The destination onward is still unknown
(Oh-oh-oh)

Outside the world keeps turning 'round
(I give everything I have)
Inside the rain is crashing down
(I give everything now)

I give everything I have

Play innocent
Acting indifferent when it ends
The world's a stage, we play our parts
Then take our exit with heavy hearts

The page forever altered, songs left unsung
The destination onward is still unknown
(Oh-oh-oh)

Outside the world keeps turning 'round
(I give everything I have)
Inside the rain is crashing down
(I give everything now)
Sometimes we have to face things alone
(I give everything I have)
The miles of highways stretching
Are unrelenting, separating us
(I give everything now)

Now words are phrased
Between ones and zeros
And our late, what is it?
Is it destiny, a destiny we follow?
Are we blind, chasing time
With regrets and sorrow?
Now the road draws me back
Home will have to wait
Embrace the time we borrow

(Oh-oh-oh)

Outside the world keeps turning 'round
(I give everything I have)
Inside the rain is crashing down
(I give everything now)
Sometimes we have to face things alone
(I give everything I have)
The miles of highways stretching
Are unrelenting, separating us (Everything I have)
