Finding Our Way Home

The ground weakens beneath our feet
Cold earth hidden from sunlight
Footsteps in the snow
Now our only guide
A weightless transformation
Erasing the footsteps behind us
Swallowing the hunger and fear
Often we had gone this way before
But now we are lost… Now we are lost
Now everything has changed
But it seems we never could be
And never had been anyplace else for very long
We had one single memory a song in our heads
A song of the day that was done
A song about home
…Home
They welcomed us somehow from somewhere far away
Within the mist and the calm
Leading us home
Something familiar and pleasant yet strange to us came
Whose gentle will has changed our fate
Stand with me just a little longer as we find our way home
We follow our faint heartbeats
And the cold breath in front of us
Falling down, crawling… Sleeping… Dreaming
And then we are gone
Then we are gone
