Joel

Dream, if it be your will
Ask me to stay a while.
Lost I am, give me a name,
Unclean, impure…unlike these lands of white.

Remember the faces disappeared in time,
Octagons, hexagons – the rays of the sun.
Pictures of valleys that stretch for miles,
Walk with me, I’ve just begun.

Reasons behind everything, confusion in my soul
I want it out of here, show me the door.
Pictures of places I haven’t been,
Letters to people I haven’t seen.

Waves are coming, waves are gone
Tomorrow is just another day.
Here is not where I belong,
Oh my Clementine, lead me astray.
