Somewhere Unoccupied
You got some bad news You took it face first Like people often do No matter how advanced An enlightened perspective's no safeguard against A real life With its nosedives Its gutter lows Its sunrise heights
I heard you say, 'I'm an acrobat I cheated death Now death is cheating back I thought I might hide out Become the empty sky But I had to land I couldn't find Somewhere unoccupied'
You sang in ghost notes: A second history A pool of broken code I felt the moment slide You were bridging the halves of a great divide
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I heard you say, 'If there's an architect Let's see the plan Let's see who gets it next I'm sure, sometimes, Except when I'm certain otherwise.' I felt your hand fold into mine,
And I was preoccupied Felt fleeting & small Completely surrounded by The fates of us all You were the troubled one But you took me on You carried me along
I heard you say, 'Go be a welcome mat. A sign of home; An uncomplicated fact Outside yourself, the whole world is helping someone else. An act of grace, a clearing mind - Somewhere unoccupied'
