Oasis

I don’t mind the distance
Just every other day.
The shadows they keep drifting,
Time gets lost in space.

Looking outside my window
This world I don’t understand.
I hear words that don’t mean nothing,
A boy grows from the seed of a man.

I don’t long for a city life
I like silhouettes that drown the light.
Never to be the same again
I wish I had a mask for you in vain.

All for nothing, nothing at all
Can this place break my fall?
This winding road leads nowhere
I got nobody on my side, but I never stood so tall.
