He walked, down a road, paved with broken down gods
in search, of a memory, he needed to clear
I warned, his believin, was trustin' to images
cuz' gods, are illusions, created from fear
he'd come, from a young life, of glory in war
abandoned, by his love, a long time ago
his faith, and his trust, forever was shattered
in broken down saviors, who he'll never know
I asked him, do you really need it, now think before answerin' me
some other god, to ease all your pain
cuz' if you're still waitin', on broken down saviors
you're never gonna find, the one in your name
storms full of anger, had left all his wounding
and dark, were the demons, who clawed at his eyes
he'd seen thru the blind, to find he was livin'
lessons of love, that were based on broken down lies
its time to return, he most close his circle
when one runs away, they will always return
for when we keep runnin', we lose to our demons
from avoiding all the wonder we came here to earn
chorus again
He's walkin' with new eyes, down the same broken road
re-paving his old mind with new steppin' stones
he's learnin' his new gods were just versions of old ones
who came to replace the shape he'd outgrown
we can't run away cuz' life moves in circles
our journey will return where we begin
believin' with blind faith is part of the journey
but sooner or later we must know it comes from within

oh my goodness! thanks so much for posting this!! Im just sorry it took me so long to read it!! I havent beenon in a while!
This has to be one of the best!! It speaks to me I guess...
Great job on this one! I love it!
Thanks Em.....the person who was the muse for this song once told me I reminded him of the channeled entity 'Thoth' who he'd studied for a number of years. 'Thoth' was an Egyptian, supposedly a 'master' teacher....who lived a very long time ago...I guess....I never read about him. It sounded kinda weird to be labelled such a way but each must come to greater 'understanding' through whatever they can relate to. I suggested he immerse himself in Gnostic literature for a while.....to see the parallels in what the Gnostics taught regarding the teachings of the Christ.....so he could see that Jesus was not thought of in the early times as a 'god'....but was .....in fact.....considered by many but another in a long procession of very wise men.
You wrote this? I am thinking this is well written, you. I am liking that I can hear a tune in my head (as I read your words written) and also that there is a story/feeling within.
'with blind faith is part of the journeybut sooner or later we must know it comes from within' Yes, I believe this is so.
I'm glad it hits 'home' SarahA
