In the journey of the soul
Where we lay, under the moon
Came a torrent rising slip-like
It had no name, howl without form

What commanding dreams we have
As the journeys commence
If you threw them against the wall
They'd probably mock circumstance

O I don't know why she came
And I don't know why she left
But Lord I'm in too much pain
And I don't have much left

Something's happening here
Too big, too loud, too hard to cheer
Does he make sense, does he appear
He's just a mangy dog, without a sneer

In the syncopated life
We need time to rest our bones
Behind the strength of every reason
Is just a person tired of paying off loans

But someday we'll shuck off these chains
And like Zampano we'll make others gawk and cheer
Only to find ourselves at the end of our lives
Crying for the one we held so dear

O I don't know why she came
And I don't know why she left
But Lord I'm in too much pain
And I don't have much left

Something's happening here
Too big, too loud, too hard to cheer
Does he make sense, does he appear
He's just a mangy dog, but now without a sneer
