Lyrics

mortal self

verse I
from time to time,
as I slip in and out of the skin of my mortal self,
I check all the corners an cracks between me and my dreams.
I walk to the edge of tomorrow and look back on everything,
and I wonder if life is really a cruel as she often seems.
sometimes the fabric of destiny
gets worn and tattered and frayed and old.
sometimes the thread that binds us together
unravels and leaves a big whole...

chorus I
with it's question of love,
it's question of heart,
the action of starting again when things fall apart.
but given all these and the difference between
the biggest piece still seems to be
someone to believe in me.

verse II
it's not at all hard to imagine a life passing by in its frailty,
without having truly seen through the eyes to another's soul.
with everyone runnig around with agendas and cellular telephones,
the unceasing murmur of loneliness finally takes its toll.
sometimes the enemy wins
and steals precious moments of purpose and meaning.
sometimes the universe whispers its secrets
then leaves in a careless indifference.

chorus II
with it's question of heart,
it's question of faith,
the action of starting again and cleaning the slate.
but given all these and the sum of their parts,
the biggest piece still seems to be
someone to believe in me.
