The Punchline
This place I’ve landed, seems so familiar
Heard these voices in my, head before
No recollection, of my past lives
as my memory is born
Frozen headlights, turn to polished silver
as we’re ejected from the wreck
this gravity seems somewhat out of order
As our bodies hit the deck.
As we’re passing through this wasteland
Just don’t stray too far from the road
Now they may call life the only punch line
To a joke nobody seems to know.
These reels turning, high definition
as the story started, to unfold
Will I be plagued with, my indecision
or does someone else, have the controls?
There’s a freedom, in the thought of flying
That only birds, would seem to know
There’s only terror, in the thought of landing
When you’re facing it alone.
I gripped the wheel tightly in my hand
But I won’t dream of letting go
As we’re headed towards the ditches
I see time begin to slow down.
As we’re passing through this wasteland
Just don’t stray too far from the road
Now They may call life the only punch line
To a joke nobody seems to know.
