I Am The Ride
Forms are loosely fitting, jury still are sitting Sense of duty keeps us all in motion Prison sirens wailing, that security is failing Do not inspire a lifetime of devotion
No one will sympathize, no one really tries They need a faith that leads them like a drum And I can hear it pounding down among the ruins Sad to say, I don't think I'm the only one
I awoke and someone spoke, they asked me in a whisper If all my dreams and visions had been answered And I don't know what to say, I never even pray I just feel the pulse of universal dancers
They'll waltz me till I die, they'll never tell me why Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I never stop to ask them where we're going Yes, but the holy, the profane are all helplessly insane Wishful, hopeful, never even knowing
And they asked if I believe and do the angels really grieve Or is it all a comforting invention? It's just like gravity, I said, it's not a product of my head It doesn't speak, but nonetheless commands attention
And I don't care what it means or who decorates the scenes The problem is more with my sense of pride Because it keeps me thinking 'Me', instead of what it is to be I'm not a passenger, I am the ride I'm not a passenger, I am the ride
