Feather

I’ve been traveling

Flying on south again

How, how could it be

It seems as though a moment ago

I was reaping the seeds that I’d sewn

Now morning blows quickly through

Afternoon follows suit

How am I to get these things done?

Well time stays uncounted by days

A looming and ominous shade

Worry been breaking and bringing me down

And counting all the times that I fall

But when my time comes I won’t be counting at all

I feel all my filth when I look in your eyes

But it falls as light as a feather on my back in the night

Man you said meet me there

How do get from here to where I belong?

It ain’t just like finding a sign to get home

It’s building your house on the stone

Worry been breaking and bringing me down

And counting all the times that I fall

But when my time comes I won’t be counting at all

I feel all my filth when I look in your eyes

But it falls as light as a feather on my back in the night

Your house it will cover you

But the rain still falls outside

And your light it don’t shine cause it’s hidden under a bed

Why do you hide under a bed?
