Left Behind

I SPENT MANY YEARS
          IN SEARCHING
FOR THE SINGLE TIE
          THAT BINDS
BUT AFTER ALL THE YEARS
          HAVE PASSED
I'VE STILL BEEN LEFT
          BEHIND.

FOR ALL MY GOOD INTENTIONS
AT DREAMS END, SOMEHOW
           I FIND
AFTER ALL THE MILES OF
           WINDING ROAD
I'VE STILL BEEN LEFT
           BEHIND.

AND EVEN THO THE SILENCE
            FELL
ON THE MEMORIES OF
            MY MIND
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT AT
            LIFES END
I'D STILL BE LEFT
            BEHIND.
