Mindless
Proverbs 21:8
8 The guilty walk a crooked path;
the innocent travel a straight road.
Mindless
Here we are on the way to nowhere
Me, myself and I all alone walking hand in hand
The roadmap that we follow drawn in my head
And that my dear brethren no one understands
“Always follow the leader” is printed in my head
If we follow close enough we won’t get lost
Myself in the lead somehow ready to blame others
And if we lack progress they alone will pay the cost
Yes we’re quite a trio as nameless we travel on
We don’t seem to talk too much but just complain
Our voices in harmony repeating the same song
About lost dreams and the reoccurrence of pain
We are almost at the starting point to go again
Ready to crawl at length in search of the finish
Me and self-dressed in despair wearing number one
We’ve come a long way without the need to replenish
The parade of one is surely unimpressive
Not anyone but a smiling donkey and me
All alone before us and shackles on my back
Singing repetitiously: “look I’m being free”
