Song#: 10
Album 15) We Lived a Life
Name of Song: Looking back along the track
Looking back along the track,
There’s nothing there but me.
Yes of course there’s all the things that I’ve done,
And the things I decided to be.
But what about the truth of truths,
The one thing that’s always been there,
Just me, myself, and everyone else,
Without all those things which we bear.
Chorus
We’re very busy enjoying ourselves,
With all of the things we can feel,
But we sorta ignored our driving force,
That elusive little spirit called me.
______
Looking back along the track,
The constant is you and me,
The identities come, but they turn to dust,
And what’s always left, just you and me.
We are a constant life force,
That keeps inspiring a violent world to love not hate,
And even though we carry burdens sometimes intolerable,
Our constant urge to carry on defies our fate.
Chorus
We’re very busy enjoying ourselves,
With all of the things we can feel,
But we sorta ignored our driving force,
That elusive little spirit called me.
______
We are beings that have been hardened by long experience,
We are beings that have been softened by who we are,
We know who we really are, just have to remember,
To take a look without the noise and all the scars.
It sometimes jolts you to finally realize how truly great you are,
It’s always better to remember now, not after you die,
With understanding of your true greatness, life turns to pleasure,
And with a blink you change your course to help others try.
Chorus
We’re very busy enjoying ourselves,
With all of the things we can feel,
But we sorta ignored our driving force,
That elusive little spirit called me.
