Prague Walkings
trip into the state of hills and mountains
old cities where millions fell in love
fell out of love
made love
then broke apart
stole a heart
then mailed it back in pieces
i climb the cobble stones
into the sunset
i look over the city
i listen
i hear a voice deep inside
say you have no patience
you want it all now
you need to follow you dreams
leave all other things behind
follow your heart
your dreams
your vision
i look to the sky
yes i know these things
but it's so hard
i want to cling
but i can't cause there is nothing to
cling to
i feel suddenly naked
not like before it is not out of an act
of acting out
but rather it is like
falling out
falling into
the blue the place
i used to know
before i found a million ways
to keep my mind from the
voice that said
give it all up and go after the dream
i look over the city
the stones breath into me
the sky reaches down and touches me
the sun lights me on fire
the birds
dive near me
i feel one with something
beyond love
the place where love began
do you believe in love
yes i believe in love
and that it can't be destroyed
then live it
by letting it all go
letting go of all you hold
throw it over the mountain
throw it into the sea
throw it to the birds
and then you will be free
you will see
i stand and i lift up my heart
i will always believe
it is all i am and all i will be
i will always believe
and dream
even if they tell me
i am insane for believing
in things like this
i believe in all those i love
and i will love them
even when they don't believe
and that is all i can do
so now fly
i walk to the top of the wall
and i open my wings
i look below there is nothing to catch me
but here there is nothing to hold
so i step to the edge
and i let go
and all the strings
i wrapped around me
snapped
and i feel over the city
and i crashed through the air
and i felt all the ways i used to see myself
fall away
then right when i felt i would crash
as my heart was falling apart
as the pain was about to cause me to crash on
the ground
something from above
lifted down and pushed me up
now do it again
what do you mean
again you are learning
but the lessons wont end
i will give then take away
till you remember
that nothing here is to hold
then i was back on the top of the wall
and then i was pushed over
all i thought i could see
faded into black
and then there was nothing left
but me and the abyss
and i cried out
this is scary
this hurts
hello do you hear me
and i kept falling
learn wisdom
learn to trust
learn to let go
and i still saw nothing
as i was falling
and the pain of a million kisses
and the words so tender rip through me
learn how to see past your wants
learn to see what is truth
learn to let go
and the pain of me caught in a place where i long to be
but i want to go back
but you can't
not till you grow
and i fall and the trees rip into me
the thorns cut my face
i bleed as i tumble in the darkness in this place
then i cry out
i see
i understand
i have no control
i will follow
it is hard though because
sometimes i want to do
what i want
and not what is right
then all of a sudden
i stopped falling
and i was floating
over the trees
over the river
and i felt a hand
take my hand and say come with me
then i was above the sea with the stars
let me show you a few things
then i saw two paths
which one will you walk
this one is if you return to before
and you will destroy the possibility of love real love
this one is a new one it is scary because you don't know it
because it is not based on needs
it is not based on this world
or the physical
or even what people will tell you
is logical
this one is the old way
your way
and this way is a new way
and i look and see
nothing i am awake and dreaming on
the bridge and i laugh inside
and smile
i wanted a challenge
what could be more of a challenge
than to go against everything i used to be
in order to seek the truth within
