Sail Your Soul

you're one set in stone, picking the bones of some forgotten song
sure know pain, I watch you fall, then start it up again

don't throw your light away.........

sail your soul keep your faith, you'll find something in the end
sail your soul find your wings, slipped away.

you want to wash your skin, say it aloud, 'where do we begin?'
god you're proud, take it home and throw it around and round

don't throw your light away.........

sail your soul keep your faith, you'll find something in the end
sail your soul find your wings, slipped away.

........ d'you really know?, really know, really know....

sail your soul keep your faith, you'll find something in the end
sail your soul find your wings, slipped away.
 

I love this track. It's quite shimmering, I think. Dedicated to all my experiences around the world as a young man, getting to grips with getting older, wiser, etc., trying to come to terms with oneself through drugs, travel, love, religion, madness. When I hear it, I think of all those crazy Carlos Castaneda books (Who??? C.i.B.). Well, the first four anyway, they were excellent. I see myself on the plateau of a tall mountain in a sandy sun-baked Mexican desert! It's like, a song about all my songs, you could say.
