From Above

 

 

The music that I hear caressing my mind keeps me feeling alive

Deep drum beats sets the pace of my heart in stride

Hearing the lyrics twist and tear at exposed emotions

Provoking thoughts of days past just going through the motions

Nothing dictating the future but my will

Seeing the band play live is such thrill

I feel the heat from my brothers and sisters near

The smell of sweat and mixed lives hovers here 

I may be older and you may be younger sharing the same moment

From the plane overhead we all look like a spot on the cement

No sounds no troubles no lies no pain

From high above it just looks like we all are on the same train
