Everyday retracing
Steps from the day before
I could be blindfolded
And figure eight the floor
Circle after circle
Caught in a spirograph
Designed like a compass
Fixed to repeat its path

Move forward, looking back
Move forward, looking back
Mistakes have lead me here
Although my successes
Are apparent and clear
It's the weave, the texture
Misplaced threads that stand out
Fear, the complications
The misery, the doubt
Mistakes have lead me here
Although my successes
Are apparent and clear
It's the weave, the texture
Misplaced threads that stand out
Fear, the complications
The misery, the doubt

There's a sadness in time
There's a sadness in time
Mental photographs made
Frames of passing fragments
That disappear or fade
We sing for the moment
Our voices in the din
When our verse is over
Another song begins
Mental photographs made
Frames of passing fragments
That disappear or fade
We sing for the moment
Our voices in the din
When our verse is over
Another song begins
Is this feeling or thought
Is this feeling or thought
My mood decides my trail
Hurt feelings, my rudder
A changing mind, my sail
Can't look the other way
When facing certainty
A head-on collision
Like constant gravity
My mood decides my trail
Hurt feelings, my rudder
A changing mind, my sail
Can't look the other way
When facing certainty
A head-on collision
Like constant gravity
Follow the narrow path
Follow the narrow path
Rewards are no surprise
Lives of decorations
Each step receives a prize
For those who deviate
No congratulations
Such is the lonely path
Without celebrations

Winter white and wonder
Winter white and wonder
The trees have gone to sleep
Icicles are forming
The tears that snowfalls weep
Perpetual snowglobe
The silence and the peace
As the snowflakes gather
Like pillows of cold fleece
