No More

It all happened not even a year ago.
I need some direction, where is my arrow?
No more shots to take; I'm all out of ammo.
You do not understand what's happening down below.
I can't take it anymore; I'm about to blow.
All you do is go with the flow!
This is why you are my foe.
Now do I lead, or do I follow?
I follow the moon; I track its glow.
Your head, your heart, all is hollow.
But what do you know?
No more waiting; I'm burning down the meadow.

So what is it that makes you say no?
Look at this finish, perfect for a photo.
You think all I did was put on a show?!
No sir, you're just being slow.
Can't take it now, I'm going solo.
I know this may be a lot to swallow,
But it doesn't matter because I set the tempo.
No more just sitting and staring out of the window.
