Life Jacket
Simon Says
Jump Start (1999)

I started this journey open ended,
Only one question in mind.
Scared that the road might end abruptly.
Invisible signs pass by.
Now that I know where I am headed,
It’s easier said then done.
Spray off the windshield.
Wipe your worries.
Throw out the maps and the rest.
Stars take the place of the
brand new compass.
Water means life will reside.
Now that I know where I am headed,
It’s easier said then done.
Worlds apart though still connected.
I feel it inside my heart.
Never lift a finger.
Never throw an anchor.
Maybe light a candle.
I’m alright.
Help me solve the puzzle.
Indicate the answer.
Maybe a life jacket.
Open the book to find these pages empty.
I’m on my own.
Now that I know where I am headed,
It’s easier said then done.
Worlds apart though still connected.
I feel it inside my heart.
