about

This one is about that leadership struggle we seem to face all the time in our modern world- the one where we lose faith in our leaders and we experience that disenchantment... they're just human...

This song seeks to put itself in a version of that story. My take on the uncertainty of following someone who's failed.

lyrics

Oh, Am I lost,
Deep in the world's addictions?
Is this my life?
Or is this just a work of fiction?
Oh, a fall from grace, I left with the best intentions,
Now all I know is a strong sense of misdirection.

Can't trust my sight
Can't discern what it is I see.
Does it show the truth,
Or does it seek to tempt me?
Don't trust my mind as I crave what is pure,
Searching this Abyss
Looking for a cure

Disorientation,
Because you're leading me,
And you don't know where you're going,
And yet you're leading me...

Oh are we lost,
with only the world's directions?
Fumbling in the dark with no light to see our way
Oh a departure from stable,
We left with the best intentions
And now all we know is this strong sense of misdirection

Can't trust my thought
with the influence unknown
Can't pursue the idea when I don't know if it's my own
I was so sure of who I was beside you
So much less certain when alone.

Disorientation,
Because you're leading me,
And you don't know where you're going,
And yet you're leading me...
