As I listen to the a.c.
I wonder about the frame of my life
To regain a sense of the anchor
To know how I’ve touched my friends
It’s a quiet, lonely view into hell
Because no one comforts the convicted
Only the victims

The gift given is an unwelcomed pleasure
And the core of my failure
At least it seems
This song makes me wonder how I ended up
Creating this person in me
I was changing for good
Now I’m in need for something stable

I hope I’ll know when
I’ve forgotten the misconceptions
I had before
About love
And trust
And purpose
And selfishness

Everyone needs time
Everyone needs time
Everyone needs time
I need time
I need time
I need time
I need prayer

Breeze and leaves
And dirt and trees
And waves and sand
And her and me
And roads and signs
Are the things that affect me
These simple things

Despite what they think
I do understand
Forgive
Allow
Listen
Pray
Proceed

We all will be home soon
