Just Let It Go

Is this life just a hidden message? As I pound these streets, I wonder As I crawl these walls, I ponder You left on a cryptic message Never to return, yet your still out there Oh so many times, far too many crimes Gone for good, just like the winter air You might be missed, as people continue to stare It’s all in your head now Just let it go, just let it go Watching three women pass by, life on the their backs Where will they go? All still young, frail and faces full of cracks On they move, turn and all so low Watching the people, crowds begin to sway Analysing their thoughts, following a long day What’s in store when they get home? Lost in thought, onwards I roam It’s all in your head now Just let it go, just let it go It was a long time ago Now go with the flow © Shane Cogan, 2013
