John Trudell - What Happens/Sarcee Song lyrics

What happens when you're alone But you're not alone There are people all around Heads buried in private sand Always it comes back To there's nothing anyone can hear Words are projectiles Random firings usually miss the mark What happens when you know What you're doing but you don't Your eyes are dry as dust While your soul drowns in tears There's nothing anyone can do When there's nothing anyone can do It's your eyes your soul your tears Your private journey What happens when you don't know What happens next You've seen the scene So many times already Waiting for something to go away Yet there's always something Unseen velvet walls Something between you and your self What happens when you've done What you were never gonna do again Another waste the same old story Spilled wines bitter taste Holding back your heart Some type of mistake you keep making Knowing the weight of your life Gets heavier not lighter What happens when you ride it out But the ride never ends Always looking for the the escape Forgetting about the chain Tripping over your own emotions But never breaking the chain Paying for every taken chance Price may be too high to make amends What happens when you're alone But you're not alone What happens when you know What you're doing but you don't What happens when you don't know What happens next What happens when you've done What you were never gonna do again What happens when you ride it out But the ride never ends What happens when the inevitability of Tomorrow arrives It always does Things could get better and should And day now any day now This sleepwalking dream Should step from the shadows Eventually the sun must burn through With shining light
