In The Shadows

The Passages Of Life

I wish that life felt new once in a while

That everything was safe on that side

That everything felt like the smell of wood for my future boat

Because I will be sailing offshore

I wish I could feel like a new man

Rolling carelessly in the sand

Learning guitar with my hands

To get my spot by the fireplace

Time ago I was Houston

Smiling at the high snowy mountains of Utah

And many times now I'm not even Achilles

Got caught searching for what the truth is

In my brain the distant rumble of motorbikes

Thought things would last forever but they said sike

I had different directions, brought me to dissection

Thought by now I would have been working in a reception

And I will make my way through

Rough seas and sense of impending doom

But I got a crew, we'll party with rhum

And we'll be sticking together 'til the end, like glue
