Man From Nowhere

I heard the wind a-screaming 

Like a dog caught on a barbed wire fence 

A howling that could chill the soul 

A crying so intense 

I pulled my coat around me 

But i couldn't keep the freezing wind

From rattling my bones and penetrating my defense 

And so i travelled endlessly 

The moon my only shelter 

As i made my way to anywhere 

Amidst this bastard storm 

And then the rain came pissing down 

I thought that i was sure to drown 

The rain it gathered round my head 

Like insects in a swarm 

The mud beneath my aching feet 

It seemed to drag me down beneath

Like demons clawing at me

From the dense and sticky soil 

I battled with those demons and i left them in my footprints

As this journey was becoming more 

A sacrificial toil

I never found nirvana 

But i found a place to rest my head 

The storm it blew a farewell kiss and died without a fight

And when i woke up screaming it was obvious 

That nothing changed 

Today i had to struggle with the hot unholy light 

The sun it was a-beating down 

It scorched much like the fires of hell 

And so i travelled on and on 

With still no place to dwell 

This story does not have an end 

It's just about a man from nowhere 

So i say goodbye to you

My one and only friend
