crossroads

where are you tonight?
where are you tonight?
you're hiding from the light
of what you used to think was right
and you're walking around town
staring at the ground
trying to retrace
the steps that made you loose your place
and you're waiting just to wait
choking back the hate
that builds inside sometimes
when people make you loose your mind
and it all comes back to home
it's what you've always known
saddness with no end
the kind that makes you need a friend
and I'll be there for you
if you want me to

The past has come and gone
and you're feeling so alone
but somethings gotta give
you've got so much more life to live
it's ok to be afraid
but just let those feelings fade
it's always hard when you get started
to keep yourself from being disheartened
but I know you will make it
you've got what it takes kid

no need to turn around
your feet are on the ground
looking back won't do no good now
but ghosts still haunt your neighborhood
and you're leaving them behind
to find some peace of mind
things won't change but you'll grow stronger
you won't need their cure any longer
and I know you can do this
just put your heart to it




these words were taken from a song I wrote for a friend of mine who is going through some very real challenges in his life. I wish I could play it for him now, but I'm too shy to sing my little 3 chord diddy to a real musician.... at least for now. Anyway, I hope it helps. -Jill
