The ones who led and lost their way.

The ones who followed went astray.

They didn’t find the light of day.

Twisted by the new religion.

Frightened by the final vision.

Compromised by distant laws that found the key and lost the door.

Something points me in a new direction but nothing changes at all.

Nothing changes my chain of thought.

I’ve been talking to the trees. They tell me “You’ve been too lonely too long.”

Far too lonely for far too long.

Far too lonely for far too long.

Far too lonely for too long.

Familiar faces turn to go.

I keep their names so that you’ll know the ones who loved you loved you so.

An endless day that passed in minutes.

The scale of time that fell within it

Swept its hands across your face

And gouged the lines – the fall from grace.

Love is living up to expectations - don’t understand it at all.

Would we share our love if love was all?

Voices whisper on the breeze and tell me “You’ve been too lonely too long.”

Far too lonely for far too long.

Far too lonely for far too long.

Far too lonely for too long.
