My Natural Calling, by ezimmerman
|
If then and either or
I can see the lighthouse on the shore!
This cold is freezing me to my core
And I don’t think I can take anymore
It’s been so long since I’ve had shelter
Don’t look back because the salt will melt her!
Just around the rocks, we can make it!
Hide your money so the authorities don’t take it!
There are so many troubles to overcome
The whole does not equal the sum
Pressing forward while I’m falling
Sprinting through time as I’m crawling
There’ll be no if ands or buts
This wagon is coming out of the ruts!
She’ll come my way by the way she struts
And we’ll trip through the day until it’s dusk
Life is so simple under the shade of the trees
The sun is on your hair as we’re floating in the breeze
The world is a playground with you by my side
Your shelter is the only place where I want to hide
My problems seem to have flown away
In all the things you’ve shown me today
You give me the strength to overcome
The whole is looking more like the sum
Pressing forward but I’m still falling
You’re still here but the comedown is calling
And so, the conclusion follows the premises
Could you leave the fire burning if you please?
I’m so tired that I’ve fallen to my knees
Maybe one day, all our pain will cease
Look how far we’ve come and all the things we’ve seen
It seems this could only exist in a dream
Loneliness is an illusion everyone knows of
But it disappears when you that you’re truly loved
My trials have come to pass
And now I’m here at last
My stress has laid itself to rest
My soul feels like it’s been confessed
I've gone from pure adrenaline to completely numb
And the whole seems like it finally equals the sum
I’m still pressing forward as I’m still falling
But I think I have finally found my natural calling
