The epic story of the oddessying hero
If you want a race I’ll make it to zero
Before you do if I find the words
I’ve my feet on the ground but I’m away with the birds
And I found myself locked in a room
They tell me I’ll be out pretty soon
But it’s like they’re caging the beast
And it’s roaring for a feast
Tearing me to pieces inside
I drop the walls I used to hide
And all of the people were magnificently pure
And I’m integrity that just endure
As they’re listing reasons I’m not well
But I’m full of a secret I daren’t tell
As I wonder why the guy is wearing shades
As we meditate upon a page
And it’s like a story that’s never been told
I wonder will I weather it when I get old
Or will these days leave a track
On skin that can’t take it back
And I’m always waiting for her to care
But she just shakes me outta her hair
And tells me it’s for the best
So I set sail on my own quest
And if I’m a hero why do I die
On my own with a sigh
Then pull myself up onto my knees
To answer all the pleas
I hear in my mind
I wonder at the life I left behind
And if anyone will set out on my track
Coz, Lord knows, I’m not coming back
And I’m weary but I’m also full of hope
The kind of optimism that copes
With every setback that waylays
And I’ve learned to take a grain of salt on days
As it meanders in a thousand ways
Across plains and by open bays
Into the avenues I know
And this train never slows
Only takes me by the hand and shows
The light the window throws
And if you’re indifferent to my plight
You gotta know that I’m alright
