I know how it feels
to be intoxicated in a land of water
Where time and space can't heal
my bitter thoughts that lead
its all in the back of my mind
these dark thoughts i find
if i can learn to forget that pain
so i can have that peace of mind
a world of ignorance seems fair
because your darkness is your shadow
left behind you without a care
if i can learn to forget the pain
by walking forward, yes, the rough miles
there is much gold that can still be gained
its all in the back of my mind
these dark thoughts i find
if i can learn to forget that pain
so i can have that peace of mind
