my life is a train
i been movin’ up and down these cars again
can’t find my home
within these crowded cars

A friend of a friend once said “life is nothing but an unending series of disappointments.” If there’s any truth to that, it’s that life is also an unending series of new strengths, hopes, and opportunities.

This is a journey-of-life song, spoken from the heart of one who, along the road, struggles to decide whether to transform life’s disappointments into forward facing energy, or whether it can be done at all. The unresolved questions are a backdrop to our resolve to push forward at any cost, with eternal strength sufficient to fuel to fight.

i gotta learn to be
before i learn to see
