Don't Fail Me Now

I was always on the outside looking in Still haven't found the best way to keep a friend I lost my love of waxing poetic No longer feel like i'm prophetic I used to speak the voice of the angels They fell silent and now I only speak for myself I used to watch the shadows with the rest of them Then I left and just found a new cave, new fire, new shadows on the wall I'm so tired from holding it together There's only so many storms that I can weather Everywhere I go there's a flock of crows on the telephone wire They must be omens, I feel the times are turning dire I used to feel like I had something to say Everyday, I offered praise, now its just malaise, I'm in a daze I'm far away, lost in a maze, long for old days, have an endless gaze Staring into space, trying to find face, how do I escape the rat race There must be more to life, than to pass the time There has to be a reason, there has to be a reason Logic don't fail me now, there has to be a reason Why are we here Why are we here Why am i here now Why can't I just be here now
