Standard (EADGBE)

Hey

I never thought I’d find

under layers of regret

a recognition of the time

before the boundaries were set

when the pages were left blank

the gold still buried in the soil

and you could make a lot of noise

with no connection to the past

Do you wonder just what happened to

 all the desire to carry on

without knowing where you’re going?

Now it’s flavor of the month

with all the expectations met

Before they strike a single chord

you can predict what you will get

- - - x4

Hey

Steal the blueprints and the maps

stamp the spade into the ground

strip the gold under the soil

then stake a claim to the sound.

Do you wonder just what happened to

 all the desire to carry on

without knowing where you’re going?
