David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

Unraveling an earlier lifetime,
I fell too far at death,
I never finished my goal back then,
Alas, my sad last breath.

The amnesia was overwhelming,
For years I tried to know,
I was this slave to what I made,
I couldn’t see it though.

I lived an unknowing battle,
Inside this world of me,
Until one day I realized,
I suddenly could see.

I started writing quickly,
Whatever thoughts made sense,
Began to see a life I’d led,
But in a vague past tense.

I continued with my searching,
To discover more about,
What I was doing that made me feel
So sad and in this doubt.

It took a while to open up,
That life that I once led,
And perceive right through those hidden things,
That kept me in my head.

I always felt resistance,
Why should I have to learn,
Something I had done before,
Which I still deeply yearn.

We go around in circles,
But never can admit,
We’ve done most every thing before,
Just hard to remember it.

I did recall that lifetime though,
The best thing I have done,
It made me face my good and bad,
From a view that had me spun.

Unraveling that earlier lifetime,
It used to keep me stuck,
But now I feel this joy inside,
It always wakes me up.

I’m proud to say I’m me now,
I keep it to myself,
It’s hard to share this type of thing
With anybody else.

Unraveling an earlier lifetime,
I fell too far at death,
I never finished my goal back then,
Alas, my sad last breath.

The amnesia was overwhelming,
For years I tried to know,
I was this slave to what I made,
I couldn’t see it though.

I’m proud to say I’m me now,
I keep it to myself,
It’s hard to share this type of thing
With anybody else.

I’m proud to say I’m me now,
I keep it to myself,
It’s hard to share this type of thing
