Erosion

Erosion Where do
I start? This thing’s tearing us apart
Nothing is clear, where do we go from here?
No wonder in sight, not even the blackest night
So where do
I start? It only remains to empty this heart
Everything that
I came to trust slipped away
I resisted the call to arms, feet of clay
Now when I sleep,
I reach for the book
I keep In my hour of need
I turn to the pages no one will read
Everything that
I came to trust slipped away
I live through this a thousand times every day
All the time that
I’m held in suspension
And unable to make myself heard
I can’t hold back the tide of erosion
And the vision that haunts me is blurred
Been as cold as
I can since who knows when
Would that
I could feel now as
I did then
Get in out of the light, avoid the glare
Lost and out on a limb, miles from anywhere
All the time that
I’m held in suspension
And unable to make myself heard
I can’t hold back the tide of erosion
And the vision that haunts me is blurred
Everything that
I came to trust slipped away
I resisted the call to arms, feet of clay
Everything that
I came to trust slipped away
I live through this a thousand times every day
