My New Window

written by Clifton J. Williams

The deed that I did last night it meant more to me
From the past existence of the spoken word
You see, this strange brew is the world’s I mix
And the thief of time seems to be my own mind

My voice it soothes my own soul
And these simple chords loosen the knot I pulled
With all the years trying to figure it all out
But now I see that I was planning my way out of here

Peering out of my new window
To all the unknowns on the foreign streets below
Well I stand alone, by myself
Living off of my poor wealth

These words that I write seem to not mean a thing
Because there is no money or a future in this game
The lack of motivation only makes me sing
Louder and louder

I’m looking forward to what the future will bring
Because these years for me now they are just time wasting
These habits I bring they are not true for me
And now I’m in a rut I’m stuck, and I can’t even see
My dreams anymore
They used to be so clear

Peering out of my new window
To all the unknowns on the foreign streets below
Well I stand alone, by myself
Living off of my poor wealth

But now I see that all my friends here, they stand beside me
Like the one who came for me and took me away

Can’t you see what I mean
To say to you now
Oh can’t you see what I mean
To say to you now

Lonely soul won’t you comfort me today
For I have grown weary in my old ways
Lonely soul won’t you comfort me today
For I have grown weary in my old ways
From these old days
From my old face
