A Dog In Peace

Intro-Verse:
Walking in circles?
at least you know the way
All these pale shadows?
mere ghosts of yesterday

Verse 2:
I’d rather be a dog in peace,
than a righteous man ... waging war
When everything is said and done
I guess I’m just a toothless ... carnivore

While we live, we’re sharing a house
but when we die, can we share a soul?

Verse 3:
My next breath swirls somewhere out there,
I know it’s catching up if we don’t stray
Contrarians zig when others zag
but tend to end their days as easy prey

Bridge:
If you could share my mind
- tell me girl, would you stay?
Join forces in this life,
and dance the dance of joy and sorrow?

Chorus:
But then a song - guides your drifting self to higher ground
and when a song - shines a light into this darksome place
and when a song - ... is softly whispering your name
Hold on - that song
(Hold on - your song)
