Chasing
Chasing cars, but can’t ever seem to run quiet that fast
 Chasing my dreams, but can’t seem to forget about the past
 When everything turns around to bite you despite you giving it time
 Desperate words heard like a whisper from those whose mouth chime
 When starlight is nothing more than a dim back porch light
 Where the light illuminates nothing more than insects of the night
 What are we chasing a false hope, an insecurity or a lie
 Chasing unwanted dreams away like the Catcher in the Rye
 Constellations litter the phosphorescent night sky
 Questions plague me, all but forgotten when on high
 Tonight we’ve all but drunk to youth
 Standing strong on an eye for eye and a tooth for a tooth
 Chasing away the lonely nomadic inspirations of our dreams
 Getting away with murder by devising a pyramid scheme
 Chasing away phantoms that always darken our light
 By holding on to nothing more than our will and our might
 The princess’ hair just doesn’t ever hang quiet as low as it once did
 Frankly, the thought of you wasting away scares the inner kid
 When something stands in your way and push comes to shove
 Is there anything in this world more powerful than that of love
 When your guards down and something sweeps you off your feet
 What we’re chasing leads to nothing more than a humble defeat
 The chasing of something that may or may not lead to success 
 Has did nothing more than drain milk from Mother Nature’s breast
 A pinpoint Doppler with a beacon signaling distress
 Has left us chasing nothing but one beautiful mess
 When sour turns bittersweet and our rivals turn the other cheek
 Can what we chase in the end outrun those who strongly seek
 A paradise, a utopia of peace and love 
 What we were chasing was always above
 In the sky under the stars we would try to see
 Reasons to believe what we were chasing was free
