Desmond

I believe in the Lord and I believe in Christ,
But I don't believe in the sacrifice
I play all day and I pray all night,
for that one right one track mind.

I hold onto myself and I hold on to the world
I hold on until the truth unfolds.
I cry my eyes and I satisfy,
for that one right one track mind.

I grasp my reality and my demise,
but I lose the grip that's on my vice
I dream all day of the cold, dark night,
for that one right one track mind.

I drown under this, the bloody fingerprints,
but I keep afloat on empty presence
I scream all day into the shallow night,
for that one right one track mind.

I lack my inspiration.
Taken by desperation.
I've lost motivation
Therefore communication.

I've got one right shot left
at whatever one track mind is left

You know JJ, your really getting good. This sounds like very professional work. I really like it. :). lots of imagery and important life questions in there.
