Rowing in the Dark by Mike Krath published on 2022-05-31T13:20:50Z Rowing in the Dark Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath There are times someone shows you the right way to go, But you ignore them and head for the common flow, Preferring to be caught up in the stormy gale, While waves batter against you to keep you still, And then you only cry for help when you are sure no one is near, A futile calling when there is none to hear. Many times you’ve acted like you’ve wanted someone by your side, Walking toward you on the water to make your storm subside, But it was only pretend as you stayed on the wider route, So you could row here and there and all about. Rowing without direction is your preferred way, To keep your lack of peace as a summer’s day, And you ignore the waves flooding your boat as the end draws near, Then have the audacity to sink with the look of fear. Rowing in the dark is what it is all about, Rowing in the dark is where your mind is at. You row with no direction to go. In a river that’s wide to make it so, No rock in sight to keep you secure, And even if seen, you always make that quick detour. Rowing in the dark until the bitter end. Rowing in the dark with your so-called friends. Genre Rock Comment by Kenna-Rae I REALLY LIKE THIS 👍 🙌 2023-01-20T17:09:33Z Comment by Bruce Avery Wonderful metaphorical story.
