In the sea or in the mire?

In the lake or on the mountain?

Should I look lower or higher?

In the well, or in the fountain?

On the streets, or in the woods?

In the incomplete, or in the misunderstood?

In the shouldn't or in the should?

Where will I find what is good?

In the couldn't or in the could?

Where will I find what is good?

It can be anywhere

it can be anywhere

With pain and sorrow

With joy and elation

With room to borrow

Without intention

There can always be

Somewhere to belong

The can always be

Somewhere to belong

In ancient ruins

In the clouded sky

In the living darkness,

Behind your eye

In the depths beneath us

On liquid ground

There lies a haven

For those not found

By the gloomy hypocrisy 

That resounds

In the heads of those 

Of us who pound

On gates too heavy

And feed the hounds

While waiting in silence

To hear the sound

Of the heartless angel

Her fingers round

Her own neck

Screaming forever

But never too loud!
