lyrics

There is no
There is no sign
Leading the way
Despite my plans
Despite my care
It seems I strayed

Chances of me finding
My way within these winding lanes
Fall to nought
Further that I travel
More the map unravels
Lose what is sought

Amazed by how long I can wander round
A labyrinth; my goals cannot be found
These roads I’m destined to walk up and down
A rabbit hole, I’m nowhere bound

If I keep on walking
Will the way find me?
If I don’t stop talking
Then you might see

I find my feet
Inside the prints
I left before
Another chance
To follow suit
Or walk abroad

As the paths diverge
Another choice emerges
Option fatigue
If my way is wrong
And I’m stringing you along
We’ll all be aggrieved

Amazed by how long I can wander round
A labyrinth; my goals cannot be found

And then my heart pounds
With sweat on my brow
My stomach churning
I’ve had enough now
The walls lean closer
I fear the worst
But up above me
Are the birds
