Song Description

Life just feels to out of control sometimes.

Lyrics

(1)
The pace of life cuts like a knife
Through weeks like they are days
& no matter where I try to hide
It never seems to pay.
My heels are worn, my soles are thin
I?m tired of trying to win
But as I sink I think I see
My ship is coming in.

(C)
I?ve been a free man
Ever since my journey began
But it doesn?t seem to matter
Which way I turn
The time just seems to burn.

(2)
I?m caught in the momentum
I seem powerless to act
As if aboard a massive ship
That never calls to port.
I?d like to ask the captain
A question on my mind.
Just where might we be headed
Had he given it a thought?



(3)
So I set off to track the captain down
I had to press the question soon
& when I found my way to the bridge
I burst into the room
But what I found was worse
Than I?d imagined it to be.
There was no-one sitting at the helm
& the wheel was spinning free

(4)
The more that time?s gone rushing by
The more convinced I?ve felt.
The way to make the best of things
Lies inside & not out.
I know now if the wind will blow
It?s bound to fill my sail
& carry me upon the waves
?cause time can never fail.
