David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

Mesmerizing painful yearnings,
So buried they seem like the norm,
New loss just becomes another layer on top
of an already hardening storm.

A son once loved,
Now a blur in time,
It feels so unjust,
Where is he?

A house that I loved,
Just a feeling remains,
There are losses from dying,
Many unspoken pains.

Chorus
A life once lived,
A body now gone,
A family once loved,
Where are they?
______

I can’t see what I feel,
I can’t say my intuitions,
Numbness and its friend called doubt,
Can’t share these cloudy feelings.

Trying to live in this new life,
Not really sure where I’m going,
Searching for the loves I’ve lost,
My mind always reminding.

Coping is our common thread,
Agreement for abounds,
But still we search for hopeful dreams,
Quietly listening for their sounds.

Chorus
A life once lived,
A body now gone,
A family once loved,
Where are they?
______

There’s a lingering sadness inside of me,
Sneaking into who I’ve become,
And it makes my life more solid,
Within those lingering feelings of numb.

Chorus
A life once lived,
A body now gone,
A family once loved,
Where are they?
