Muse Out of My Way Chanso
The call and response I have with a muse
Is playing with my mind and I'm confused
Thinking of ghosts whispering in my ear
Then all the whispering got all too clear
I could see the lady with long brown hair
Talking to me and she's very much there
Saying 'what do you think of such and such'
Response 'I think, I like it very much'
Now if I'm on the outside looking in
Exactly who resides within the skin
A ghost or hallucinogenic state
Would a ghost mean I face an iffy fate
I settle myself down, forget concerns
It is not me and a muse taking turns
It was just my mind playing late night tricks
So my mind absolutely needs no fix
I got straight out of bed, woke up the dog
He's not picked up on ghostly dialogue
It's just innate drivers handling the show
These drivers produce otherworldly flow
Nothing much is being offered up now
Perhaps all me, 'prompted' to take a bow
