iâm on an island at a busy intersection
i canât go forward, i canât turn back
canât see the future
itâs getting away from me
i just watch the tail lights glowing
one step closer to knowing...

the day matches the times. gray, foggy, dreary. if sadness had a color, this would be it. no solidness, just vapors. it's tough to get a hold of and, sometimes, what is the use. if the lesson is to teach, we're at your mercy. we're on our knees...
and it's difficult to concentrate on dosage and calculations when the real numbers are flesh and blood. and it's too hard to follow directions, when the test has already been failed.
and the elephants and cows, the birds and monkeys...they know what arrogant man doesn't. and sister tragedy drags along compassion, teaches how to quietly smother hatred, for at least a little while, until it's time to change the channel and pop the microwave dinner to start.
here and now
and that is all.

You sing a song
While sitting at a red light
You think of home
While sitting at a red light
Too slow to roll
Put your life on hold
An open path
With nowhere to go
You start to wonder
While sitting at a red light
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
A chance to breathe
While sitting at a red light
You look around
reflecting on your life
A chance to think
Am I drinkning too much
Should I keep going
Lose the life that I love
A second glance
When coming to a red light
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
When things look low
You've gotta keep stong
Feet to the grass
You've gotta walk it off
The bows been tied
Too tight to laugh
Feet to the ground
You've gotta walk it off
You can run a red light
You can run a red light
Start to think
Am I drinkning too much
Should I keep going
Lose the life that I love
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
You can run a red light
You can run a red light
You sing a song
While sitting at a red light
