There are so many souls
Running a muck
Out on a limb
Down on their luck
Playing with time as they try and piece it all together
Shows what can go wrong
When you try and go it alone
With only earthly ideas
Of whats going on
How can we predict our lives when we can't even predict the weather
Too many lives are like sailing ships passing by on a moonless night
Birds in search of food on a wingless flight
Trying time and time again to get it right
Out there like tall buildings in a city standing side by side
No way to run with nowhere to hide
Just empty shells with nobody inside
They tend to bend to the whim
Of society's call
Blind to the truth
Bugs in a jar
Surroundings are clear with no idea of how to get there
Without God on their side
To draw from in life
They keep running in place
They keep biding their time
No ones keeping score but the feeling is sure, they could do better
Too many lives are like sailing ships passing by on a moonless night
Birds in search of food on a wingless flight
Trying time and time again to get it right
Out there like tall buildings in the city standing side by side
No way to run with nowhere to hide
Just empty shells with nobody inside
