Born Again

Born again. I am a stranger in a foreign land And I have no place to call my home. I have travelled as a dark lonely man in this world And I still feel the need to roam. There’s a beautiful horizon in the back of my mind; I would start again from the beginning, if I could turn back time. They allow me to rewind; to start again. Now I have lost all that which I have gained. But I begin with the knowledge of a former life. Like a train, I charge into the new life, swallowing all future knowledge. This time I am born to win! I am born again. Pick up your lies; You have been walking all over the truth. All I knew was worthless to a former life, Where all I did was lose. But now the truth shall set me free! I shall embrace peace, love and empathy! I shall never again suffer indignity. I have become all knowing, all seeing; So now such love, I shall no longer seek. Aspire to inspire, whilst playing the lyre; The lies are no longer necessary to lift us above. Eyes are now wide open, keep your mouth shut! We are all born to lose, this life we are given; To go in search of love. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
