True North

Forest for the trees 

I don't live in a time Where the truth prevails Things just seem to happen On an escalating scale They play you for a fool To weaken your resolve Drowning you in details To make you miss the whole Sunbeams and forget-me-nots Beads of amber, parking lots From your view, you see a lot What you really see Forest for the trees I don't live in a world Big on clarity The way it's coming at us So relentlessly Where does one thing end And the next one start Where to begin To keep it all apart Sunbeams and forget-me-nots Keys are in the flower pot A rider brings his horse to trot All is lost on me Forest for the trees Sunbeams and forget-me-nots Awoken by a rifle shot From your view, you see a lot But never the whole piece Forest for the trees We're running out of movieplots Your stomach's tied into a knot Crackles as the needle drops On a somber melody A heartbreak elegy Unsurprisingly Called "Forest for the trees" Oooh, aaah...

True North


As the crow flies In a line from A to B No more false starts Just find your way to me Due north You just have to believe And sail to the end of the world But good sailors always return So, hold on to hope and Pray there will be Fair wind and following sea As the tide is turning And I am far from shore You're the nighttime beacon Guiding me to port Due north My true True north We just have to believe And sail to the end of the world A good sailor always returns So, hold on to hope and Just pray there will be Fair winds and following seas Windward turns are how we learn How to be free And through the dark We will sail by the stars On fair wind and following sea True north
