missing person

another question in me

one for the powers that be

it's got me thrown

and so i put on my poker face

and try to figure it out

this undeniable doubt

a common occurence

feeling so out of place

guarded and cynical now

can't help but wondering how

my heart evolved into

a rock beating inside of me

so i feel such a stoic ordeal

where's that feeling that i don't feel

there was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain

and like a child he would believe without a reason

without a trace he disappeared into the void and

i've been searchin' for that missing person

under a lavender moon

so many thoughts consume me

who dimmed that glowing light

that once burned so bright in me

is this a radical phase

a problematical age

that keeps me running

from all that i used to be

is there a way to return

is there a way to unlearn

that carnal knowledge

that's chipping away at my soul

i've been gone too long

will i ever find my way home

there was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain

and like a child he would believe without a reason

without a trace he disappeared into the void and

i've been searchin' for that missing person

he used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow

he had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow

it's been a long time and i haven't seen him lately

but i've been searchin' for that missing person
