I can't find my way home
The needle of my compass spins round and round
I hold it in my hand, hoping for it to settle,
But my world has changed, there's little light and sound.
Life's just a blur, and I can't seem to focus
My shutter's too slow, every second seems so long,
And i'm just living it out without a purpose,
Turning my agony into words, into a song.
This is all my doing
And I wish it were a momentary lapse of reason,
I guess it wasn't my mind doing the thinking then,
Something deep inside took over, and plunged me into oblivion
And no matter how hard I try,
The past always catches up, burning everything in its wake
All the sand castles that I build over so many days and nights
Get washed away, just like that. My life is so fake.
Maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home,
Because I think I understand love better now, thanks to you.
It's not about how much I love you or care about you
It about how far you are willing to go to forget me and find someone new
(The title comes from a Pink Floyd album, the first line of the last stanza is the name of Stereophonics song)
