So Hard To Find
I’ve been straining my eyes
To block out the noise
As I look for something
Just past the end
It’s been hiding from me
Over the jagged edge
In the gray fringe
It’s just so hard to find
Maybe it’s in the grunge
That litters my mind…
Or maybe on the tip of my tongue
Or maybe tickling my lips
Tempting me to come undone
Maybe it’s a coded message
That I can decipher with age
Maybe it was sent from hell
Tempting me with the ultimate thrill
Maybe I was never meant to see
Maybe the tickle is my destiny
Trying to find me without spiritual light
Maybe the message is like a doomed flight
Or the constant drip of a faucet
That tells truthful lives of a hidden closet
Where a secret waits concealed and hate
That knows the passage of escape
That is so hard to find with blind eyes
