Rob Freihoff - No Daylight In Sight

When it's all gone
And forward's a lost direction
A humble inward genuflection
Before we wrestle with the demons
A needed absolution
Remedies for lost souls

My intentions spoiled in a jar on the kitchen sill
Sitting smugly, tugging at my will
The pieces I turn to collect
Are rusty old notions
Left behind to torment beaten, old men

No daylight in sight
Bitterness I've tasted
All of my life
I've been wasted

If it's all in pieces
I've survived it well
Deaf to your beckoning
Wide is the worn out path to hell

Never a mention of it when I was a boy
Never was a warning shot fired
I was to rest in the hollow of my new pestilence
Until my time had expired
And the United States of America keep taxing the hell out of the poor
And Shylock delivers a bill at my door weekly
And I take a knee with a fire of hope in my heart

No daylight in sight
Bitterness I've tasted
All of my life
I've been wasted

A fool and three choices
Feeding wishes to his fears
Fables and Angel voices
The voice you dare to hear
