Chasm

(Kevin Browne)
December, 2006
Walking in a new direction
But still you catch his eye
Nervously you stare straight forward
As you try to pass him by
But there is no way around him
History bears proof
Nothing you can say or do will
Hide you from the truth

And though you’d like to leap into the chasm
Reason haunts you, your little world begins to spasm
But cause can relieve your pain

Buried in this constitution
Are words that do not rhyme
Assaulting every institution
And then distorts you mind
You set off in your search for meaning
But there he stands again
You wish you could dispatch your guilt
But your barricades are thin

(chorus)
