Footsteps


I walk alone
in my own footsteps
leaving traces behind me
where I have been
my footsteps you will see

I tried changing my footsteps
been walking forever alone
looking for traces I must be blind
where I have been
no footsteps I find

Traces I lost
No traces I found
Tried to make new
wouldnt stay to the ground

Now I walk alone
no footsteps to see
Walking unnoticed
who cares its just me

Nice bluesy feeling to this. Wellsounding and songlike..

Very inciteful about retracing our steps and not recognizing we've been here before and not leaving a trace of being here again because nobody cares. This had an impact on me as I go back to the future.

i understand this...
remember though we are never alone really...
you have yourself...
and that's where we begin.
thanks for the beach :)
