Lost Pilgrim

Pilgrim, those are dry and bitter tears

And lonely eyes look way beyond your years

Pilgrim, did you drink the mercury?

Your lips turned blue and you're struggling just to see

You were too far gone to carry on

Now your life has stalled!

As you march ahead yet go no place at all

Pilgrim, when you left them all behind

The loneliness destroyed your able mind

Pilgrim, see the writing on the door?

It's taking you back to a place you were before

And the next in line paces your stride

Waiting for your fall!

With a hope that lies in a hidden master's call

Pious eyes ignoring passers by

Headlong to their grave!

Don't despair this world of toil and care

This pilgrim lost his way

Pilgrim, will you ever find your call?

Is truth so pure that you're willing to risk it all?

Pious eyes ignoring passers by

Headlong to their grave!

Don't despair this world of toil and care

This pilgrim lost his way!
