Something in the Way

Something in the way
Getting trampled under your boots
And you never know
Why you did it,
What you ought not to

Something in the way
Never catches your view
Though you know you have seen
Not quite well though
Why you neglected it,
Which you ought not to

Something in the way
Never touches your heart
Though you know you need it
Not quite too much though
Why you let it go,
When you ought not to

Something in the way

That hinders your progress
And you scold the world instead

That blinds you from the truth
And you love darkness instead

That shapes a shapeless future
And you admire the beauty instead

That kills your voice within
And you die to be heard instead

That makes you long for warmth
And you embrace cold instead

Something in the way
Waited long for you
Perhaps too long
When it deserved not to
And never did you too
