Signs

all that life has ever brought me
was never as dead as i thought
all light has shown me
was never as dark
all these paths these boots have walked me
were covered in seeds
now the seeds made trees and they made a jungle in me
there is a sign in every road
there is a sign you can’t ignore
there is a sign that lets you know
when it’s time to let go
the trees made a raft
and the raft made me take to the sea
and under the stars i learned i’m my sole company
then silence spat out my name
now silence, the seas and the stars
are part of me
there is a sign in every road
there is a sign you can’t ignore
there is a sign that lets you know
when it’s time to let go
don’t tell that there’s something more difficult
than knowing when to stay or when to go
well, life has its wrongs and life has its rights
life has its reasons
of that i’m sure
there is a sign in every road
there is a sign you can’t ignore
there is a sign that lets you know
when it’s time to let go
