Another Day, Fading Slowly

It’s just one of those days
When the pain won’t go away
Troubled and I’m feelin lonely
Fadin slowly, but I’m playin goalie
Deflect what might infect my thoughts
Like an authority denying entry to port
I built a fort, the walls show no entry
No access, even though the building is empty
I’m stuck in a limbo
The message was sent
But I bet I missed the memo
Gotta change my tempo
And discover my balance
I find my peace through words and a ballad
