Passing Stranger

See the sign up ahead,
It calls out your name,
It's a meaningful sign but it makes no sense,
Saw you pass on through with only one shoe
And a mystified mind with an angel for a guide,
There's a destiny song that's meant for me,
But I'm weary of the soles of my innocent feet,
Like a single site you know it's all you got,
So be sure to aim true with your eyes on full view,
There's nobody you can accuse,
The mirror reflects upon truth and from inside I feel bruised,
The mask that I wear is unsure,
Unable to find a known cure
So I hide for evermore.
I'm a passing stranger with a name I can't remember,
I'm going blind from the dust in my eyes.
The ground back home seems so far away
And I'm coughing up my lungs,
But I know I've gotta stay,
I'm moving slow with nowhere to go,
I stumble on a a sigh: one mile to dine,
It takes a little time, and I'm barely a alive
But I make _______ with the shortage of breath.
The coffee you sold me is cold,
The paper I'm reading is old,
And that smile is not your own,
The clothes that I wear are soaked through,
I’m all out of love for you,
And there’s a million things I can’t do,
(Can't do, can't do)
Something strangely familiar about where I am,
I'm sitting next to the man with the unsteady hands,
He says "how are you son, where you been all week?"
I recognise his voice even in my sleep
Lord only knows what I got up to,
Maybe its best for me if I just find my shoes,
And confirm my suspicions for heaven's sake,
And pick up my trail from my front gate,
There’s no-body you can accuse,
The mirror betrays the bold truth,
And from inside it's what you do,
Start diggind around,
And you'll find missing for years,
Your own life,
You’re better off trying not to hide.
