Missing PersonsAnother question in meOne for the powers that be It's got me thrown And so I put on my poker face And try to figure it out This undeniable doubt A common occurence Feeling so out of place Guarded and cynical now Can't help but wondering how My heart evolved into A rock beating inside of me So I feel such a stoic ordeal Where's that feeling that I don't feel [Chorus:] There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain And like a child he would believe without a reason Without a trace he disappeared into the void and I've been searchin' for that missing person Under a lavender moon So many thoughts consume me Who dimmed that glowing light That once burned so bright in me Is this a radical phase A problematical age That keeps me running From all that I used to be Is there a way to return Is there a way to unlearn That carnal knowledge That's chipping away at my soul I've been gone too long Will I ever find my way home [Chorus:] There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain And like a child he would believe without a reason Without a trace he disappeared into the void and I've been searchin' for that missing person He used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately but I've been searchin' for that missing person |
