lyrics

Moving and grooving on with my day
When a riptide came & swept it all away
Taking me right out far past the ridge
To that spot right under the bridge

& as the safety line snapped
I hung on firm to my map
As my feet got ensnared
This losing streak I pared
As the earth’s mantle did crack
I held on firm to the facts
As the winds whipped & lashed
I stayed on true to my pact

Do you remember me
Discarded half-heartedly

Freezing and wheezing deep in the night
When a thick fog obstructed my sight
Lost my direction compass it was broke
Started a fire rain smothered the smoke

& as the drawbridge did sway
I held on true to my way
Standing firm in the gale
Didn’t abort or bail
Though the current did churn
Magnetic pulse I did spurn
Walking the path alone
‘Til I get back to my home

Yeah man they jumped ship & bailed
Turned hip & hightailed
Left us scattered and strewn
Deserted on high shore full marooned

I caught you looking back
Keep moving on
Ensure avoid the cracks
Keep fooling

Sidestepping & shuffling along the block
When a detour rerouted my walk
Took a sharp left down the wrong road
When I got took for more than what was owed
But I’ve recovered dusted myself off
Licked my wounds crawled out of the trough
Seeking some wisdom called up my sage
Said hold the phone let me check the wage

Feels like I’m turning the page
All seems to fall into place
Clock’s tick-tocking on time
Dominos fall into line
Feels I’m in sync with the vibe
Its rhythm I’m gonna ride
Cards seem to all align
Dealer pays out every time
