Drinking from the chalice of indifference Aboard a vessel in my mind Hear the haunting sounds of rotting wood Serve to awaken a sense of time But the candle’s running out of wick And I am running out of wine Im the man in the middle Drifting out to sea Waiting for a strong slow current To carry me It was 2 years before the mast And through the looking glass I don’t know where to go The things that he said They really turned my head But Tom Sawyer is still a (expletive) Why don’t you tell me so Im the man in the middle Holdin out my hand Im waiting for a strong slow current Take my hand Come on take my hand Shes just the girl you want (rhythmic chant-like) Shes just the girl you wanted But she dont want you She dont want you (Dark Em) She won’t let you in She won’t let you WIN (Brighter) I know I know
I'm a singer-songwriter from the High Desert of Southern California, creator of: original music, books, a blog, and two podcasts, Riley on Film where I talk about movies and Rte 66 Espiritu, my online diary whose frontage face is a podcast on spirituality. I pepper it with humor in a stand-up type manner and presentation.
If my, what Google AI calls "multi-faceted" art, has inspired, entertained, or helped you in some way, please like and subscribe to my YouTube channel, it helps expand my coast and get my ministry to more people:
