Labyrinth

from Forward by Beth Patterson

lyrics

Into the labyrinth
Cut down to just a tenth
Nothing to face but your thoughts

Omen and oracle
Phantasmagorical
Casting and drawing their lots

Cast the final stone or simply vanish in a heartbeat
Throw a phony trail or turn around and make tracks
Lose yourself in spirals or find yourself as incomplete
Hide away from logic and slip through the cracks

Robbed of an innocence
Plagued by a pestilence
In a sense, that would be fine

Counting the missing lights
Working up appetites
Searching for something divine

Some would gladly take a leap of faith into the darkness
Some know deeper hells than just a quiet despair
Some would walk away to flee the prospect of a falseness
Some are terrified to face emotion in there

Malbec and sassafras
Smoke and the looking glass
No time for stake in a claim

Calling and camouflage
Saving and sabotage
Sometimes are one and the same

Nothing to be done but bunker down like in a hurricane
Try in vain to change or just accept what you see
Look into the truth or simply shatter like a windowpane
Rest assured there’s not a thing to fear from me...
