I’d reach out to you
But I’m all tied up
The world is so demanding
Villains can’t get enough
Why can’t they cut me some slack
On this railroad track?
Seems to be a misunderstanding
And the train is coming back
*
The wheels are spinning round
Sparks fly with squealing sounds
I lie here with only words
Tightly chained, so neatly bound
While the source of my situation
Simply can’t be found
*
My sinister captor laughs
Shaking solid ground
Just as an unsuspecting hero
crosses the tracks to go to town
Arrives in a small window
Looking back
And I’m found
**
I’d reach out to you
But I’m on another plane
No dimensions withstanding
No pain is a huge gain
We can’t ever look back
But who’s keeping track
Those hypocrites are underhanded
We’re still on the tarmac
*
When the wheels start spinning round
Engines sound like a growling hound
We reach the sky with words
There’s a sheer climb to resound
When we care, we rise higher
New altitude is found
*
Our internal pilot plans
So we are never falling down
An optimistic soul we show
Imagination tightly wound
Peace arrives
And love will flow
Flying higher
World-renowned
**
If I leave I will return
From the far side of a lake
Ringing bell brings me back
I am flat-out on the track
Thunder starts the race
Raindrops stay in their lanes
Driving to our headspace
Our visions stay intact
A choice we had to make
A chance we had to take
The echo calling our name
Into a better day
**
Are you reaching out to me
Now that I am on the road
I can’t answer right now
I have got a heavy load
Can you wait for a while?
Maybe just another mile
There’s a shoulder ahead
And I’ve got you on speed dial
*
Now my head is spinning round
Waiting for the ringing sound
I drive fearlessly with words
That I can’t say till we’re bound
Not till we connect together
And heavy our hearts pound
*
The winding road shares a story
And Our destination’s found
Perfect moments come and go
The road to home I’m heading down
Arriving like an echo
Everywhere the sound
