Giù

Have you ever?

I was wondering

Would it be the same?

I’ve been thinking - here and there

would it be right?

To just let myself go

in the middle of the night

Let my thoughts fly by

next to your dreaming mind?

 

Have you ever found yourself 

locked outside

powerless on the inside

off

the right road

what they call it.

Does it exist?

The right path?

Is there only one for all of us?

Did I have too many

missteps?

Is it too late?

 

I know

what’s done can’t be undone

Still,

I wait for a little human grace to come

 

But, mercy on me

mercy on us

We’ve just missed the ways, 

once 

too many times

no right to be crucified, in the middle of the night

mercy on me, mercy on us

 

Left, right

Do I turn?

Do I move?

What do I do?

every choice feels miles away

mind over matter, matter over time

Still chasing something 

I might never be able to find.

 

Have you ever?
