Let Go - Handshake

I was first to go

and felt like violence

entering your room

where you sat in silence

suddenly you spoke

but I did not hear

busy as I was

trying not to listen

I was first to go

but there will be others

cause the times are slow

and demands are harder

as I tried to smile

you just syour head

not a human being

but disposable flesh

get on up, get on up

turn the radio off

get on up, get on up

find a way you can save your life

be quiet, I’m in control

but I can’t feel anything

I’ll turn this around again

I will…

carry the load

but I think it’s way too much

to carry all alone

it’s bending my back and soul

and I feel so old

my time is a dying thing

and I try a leap of faith

and hope I will be ok

and I try to close my eyes

and let me fall like rain

to let me overflow… this ocean
