Faster and Faster
Here I come
I'm a meteor
on an uncharted course
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun
I'm burning up
Faster and faster.
I can't take
the heat
I can't take
the pressure
I'm burning up
I'm trying hard
to keep it together
Falling part as
I enter orbit
Piece by piece
there I go
Breaking apart
breaking apart
Driving down this
unfamiliar canyon
the moon lights the way
in this pitch dark night
the moon shines down
on me
guiding the way
to somewhere I've never known
It's the torch of the sky
It's the torch of my eye
Yet not bright enough to
show me the way
show me what's ahead
I notice the train
on the tracks next to me
carrying all the weight it can bare
I step on the gas
and race it down the hill
Victory
But is it?
the train works with
all of its might
where my victory was effortless
empty.
I see the city ahead
it's not my city
it's my recent home
but not the one
I call home.
I want to be there now
I want to sleep
forget about these thoughts
of failure
even now as I approach
a new year in my life
I realize that I have not yet
grown into the thought
that life isn't supposed to make sense
