compass

not so hot tonite baby
the light is green yet there's no answer
so i sit here at this keyboard
and gut my sorrow's flights of fancy

i miss you oh so terribly
trina find an answer is this quest
either way i head for trouble
heartache on my heels; this life's a mess

the universe has turned on me
too many missteps, in too deep and woe is me
what have i done, where am i headed
trippin over judgements, choices, inner voices, me

nowhere to go but sinking
i took off downward strolling
i've been under far too long
my tolerance for light is gone

senses falter in this darkness
can't tell which way is down, which way is up
i've been on autopilot since forever
didn't notice how far into it i got
into hurt i never sought

the universe has turned on us
too many missteps, in too deep and woe is me
what have i done, where am i headed
trippin over judgements, choices, inner voices, me

misty shine found lodging in my eyes
my head rests in hands, gaze down, lids half mast
ain't kidding myself no kidding
complication's here and alls wrong at long last

the universe has turned on me
another misstep, failed attempt and woe is me
what i've done, where am i headed
trippin over judgements, choices, inner voices, me
