Reprimand

 

Don’t want to travel further

On this road that I am on

Too many starless nights now

Too many friends are gone

 

Don’t understand just why the words

Come screaming out of me

I can’t explain just why this time

Still has a hold on me

 

Not asking for some sympathy

For all that I still fear

Can deal with all the emptiness

That often comes too near

 

Can’t tell you how I hate the cold

That found a home in me

Can’t tell you of the battles fought

Just trying to get free

 

Yet still one burning question,

‘My Lord why such a load’

‘Because it’s what you asked for’

‘Now get on down the road’
