Visions

(album: Ribbon Around The Bomb - 2022)

I'm not myself this morning
In the window seat, I see the light
And through the sky, the dawning
We sleep on the train through the night

The ocean seemed so far away
We could hardly see it through the trees
I miss the sound the water made
Was I complete at twenty-three?

Visions coming down
Going upstream before my eyes
They don't make a sound
And I'm lost somehow
More than you'll ever know

I'm running down my old street
In a light show of emotion now
My youth it lies behind me
Dream-like till I turn around

I watch the Monday morning rise
The roads they fade into the air
The sun was coming up on time
It's my weakness, I always care

Visions coming down
Going upstream before my eyes
They don't make a sound
And I'm lost somehow
More than you'll ever know

I wander lonely till I can't speak, can't speak
Out on the other side of silence, I can breathe

I wander lonely till I can't speak, can't speak
Out on the other side of silence, I can breathe

I wander lonely till I can't speak, can't speak
Out on the other side of silence, I can breathe

I wander lonely till I can't speak, can't speak
Out on the other side of silence, I can breathe

Visions coming down
Going upstream before my eyes
They don't make a sound
And I'm lost somehow
More than you'll ever know

I remember seventeen
And I'm thinking how it's not the same
Times passing before me
And we're drinking more to numb the pain

Somewhere along the line
Away above the coastal plain
Something called to my mind
And from this fear I must wake

Visions coming down
Going upstream before my eyes
They don't make a sound
And I'm lost somehow
More than you'll ever know

More than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
