Difficult for me to say, if the brain,
Is not unlike such a hike
We walked through San Fernando to Loop, Lost and fault trails
And i kept thinking of the invisible 'maps in our minds'
Are the direction signs our social 'brakes'?
When to say thanks
How to reach home after work
When to get angry
And when to say what we do not mean
and mean what we do not say
We are programmed to follow through the trails of the mind
And what about our children, in whose minds
The trails have been erased, lost in translation
For they walk without directions
And count on us to lead them on the path
For the forest is not compassionate,
It is unjust, cruel
But who designed such a forest?
And what is the meaning of the episode
Is our life like a never ending hike, an eternal trail
Think about it?
And we, condemned to find new directions
Explore, then get lost, to again find new paths, then discover
To rediscover
And where does it all lead us to.....
The eternal trail of life, winding and tricky
Take heed friends, hold the map tight
For the journey is long and never-ending
