In The Dirt

(album: Over The Horizon Radar - 2022)

I was lost in rain, in a dream of places
Tried to find my way among the million faces
Signals from the minds in this world of mazes
But truth is hard to find when no one's leaving traces
Only saved by her, she's my only fuse
Life was never better, no no, since I found my muse

I used to run from home in a search of something new
But now I'm resting easier in my nest with you
Like a respirator, you're the air I breathe
The more I think about the future, without you I could never be

I'm in the dirt without you
I'm in the dirt without you, baby
Nothing good without you
Can't live my life without you, baby

When my younger eyes found hypnotic roads
I drove into those blinding lights, believing the lies they told
Speeding through the dark with my lonely war
Spinning round in the same old circle till you opened the door
Like an equalizer, you've changed the sound
Suddenly the melody of love, it was all around
When love is real, you feel it deep
The cuts inside a wounded heart no longer bleed

I'm in the dirt without you
I'm in the dirt without you, baby
There's no living without you
I'm in the cold without you, baby

Can't take flight without you
Couldn't see the light that shines the night
Losing magic without you
You give me reason, you make it worth the fight

I'm in the dirt without you
Such a mess without you, baby
I have no vision without you
I see no dream without you, baby
I'm in the dirt without you
Stuck in the dirt without you, baby
Can't go on without you
There's no fire without your burning love

I'll take whatever comes
Cause I am strong when I'm with you
We two are one
Like the fusion in the sun
