As I try to find my way
this broken compass seems to lead so much further away
To live and breath another day
to see the things that I have seen
only a few of us may
Reap the rewards of life
so much is missing or mistaken
so much doesn't seem right
Please guide me through this maze
engulfed by the gutters
trapped in this haze
So sick of this mess I'm in
far away from all the people that they really want me to be
When did this road begin
things are getting worse it's almost to the point where I can not see
That there's more to life
so much is questioned in what's written
so it may seem
Shackled in so many ways
engulfed in the storm
trapped in this haze
This compass leads me away
If you heard all the sounds
would you lift me off the ground?
Would you guide me through the rain?
So wipe my eyes and scratch my head, I can only see a couple feet in front of my face
Why don't you turn on a light instead, this kind of travesty seems to just pull me away
[Chorus]
This compass isn't working
my sails are slowly turning
This compass isn't working
it's slowly leading me away
This compass leads me away
If you heard all the sounds
would you lift me off the ground?
If you'd just turned around
and believe in what you've found
Will you guide me through the rain
Through the rain [repeat]
