Time For a Change
A lifetime spent looking hither and yon
buying this and that
going here and there
never realizing there was always a mask for me to don
An eternity spent living up to lies
visiting this country and that
conquering him and her
and never finding the life that satisfies
Thousands of miles spend in a life’s search
starting here starting there
failing there failing here
with years of disbelief I now warily eye the church
I wearily count up the dreary years and days
been here been there
done this done that
since none of that has worked before, maybe now I'll change my ways
