Somewhere - Human Drama

Shadows run so mysterious

Silhouetted as they pirouette

Behind the stairs

That take them farther from home

17th street, Tenth Avenue

The ice age fell so just deal with it

Put your gloves in your pocket boy

Let’s go to war

Light years from the parking lot I once played

And the bed last night where I laid

Open the curtains boy

It’s time

Somewhere tomorrow’s promise rings

Somewhere a Sunday choir sings

Somewhere is where I want to be

Time Square, it’s a carnival

Were there lights?

I failed to notice

But twenty seven needles lay

In the cracks where I walk

For all the dreams and the saviors we once knew

All the flags we waved without a clue

Open the curtains boy

It’s time

Somewhere tomorrow’s promise rings

Somewhere a Sunday choir sings

Somewhere is where I want to be

In New Orleans lies the punishment

Distorted eyes look past the crime scene

Year after year

Waiting to be found
