The Clay
[Verse 1]
A doctor or the lost and found
Can’t heal my heart or remove this frown
Find my wandering muse when everything's upside down
Even hands can hurt on a spinning wheel, going round
[Pre-Chorus]
I need some hope, a scribble in the sand
Sweat in the mud, someone to understand
The rhyme in the chaos, that I’m more than this lack
See a light in total darkness, maybe belief can bring me back
[Chorus]
Cause all feeling is gone,
Has it died or run away?
Am I a ghost or still a man?
Will love rise again one day?
Am I walking to you or nowhere?
Can I even ever know it?
If there’s beauty in the dirt,
Could a poet somehow show it?
[Hook]
Oh-oh-oh, I’m waiting for the light,
Oh-oh-oh, I’m reaching through the night,
Oh-oh-oh, hope’s got to find its way,
Oh-oh-oh, I’ll be alright one day.
[Verse 2]
Can you feel my wilderness?
Without a sound, I’m calling you
Tangled thoughts, lost in the wind
Are any of them getting through?
Taste my echo, feel my heart
Can you see when I can’t say?
Wondering soul, so far gone
Only the potter remakes the clay
[Pre-Chorus]
I need some hope, a scribble in the sand
Sweat in the mud, someone to understand
The rhyme in the chaos, that I’m more than this lack
See a light in total darkness, maybe belief can bring me back
[Chorus]
Cause all feeling is gone,
Has it died or run away?
Am I a ghost or still a man?
Will love rise again one day?
Am I walking to you or nowhere?
Can I even ever know it?
If there’s beauty in the dirt,
Could a poet somehow show it?
[Bridge]
I’m not lost, I’m just waiting,
For the spark to start the flames,
A broken heart can find its healing,
When the silence speaks my name.
A new day’s on the horizon,
Maybe tomorrow I’ll see,
That the pain will turn to purpose,
And hope is all I need.
[Chorus]
Cause all feeling is gone,
Has it died or run away?
Am I a ghost or still a man?
Will love rise again one day?
Am I walking to you or nowhere?
Can I even ever know it?
If there’s beauty in the dirt,
Could a poet somehow show it?
[Hook]
Oh-oh-oh, I’m waiting for the light,
Oh-oh-oh, I’m reaching through the night,
Oh-oh-oh, hope’s got to find its way,
Oh-oh-oh, I’ll be alright one day.
