lyrics

Woke up on the floor
Crawled up to the door
Pushed myself into the light
I could not retrace
My steps unto this place
No familiar face in sight

I need to find my own direction
I got no cards in hand to play
I’ll take the path of introspection
Getting home is getting harder every day

Tried to take a bus
Got my numbers crossed
Found myself lost on the tracks
Strangers point the way
Soul in disarray
I’m too far gone now to get back

I need to find my own direction
I got no cards in hand to play
I choose the path of introspection
Getting home is getting harder every day

Some say that home is where the heart is
Can’t seem to locate mine right now
Seems to me the toughest part is
knowing where to look and learning how

I need to find my own direction
I got no cards left now to play
My path’s the path of introspection
Getting home is getting harder every day

Wound up on a train
Whirring through the rain
People chatter, this and that
Remember what we had
Times when we were glad
Your bed side rose is in my hat

I’ve got to find my own direction
I got no cards in hand to play
My path’s the path of introspection
Getting home is getting harder every day
