Shed A Tear

Shawn Mullins

Here I am

and once again I've come this far

for everywhere you go

you never know

you're right there where you are

I thought by now

you'd surely shoot a different line

your tracks still on my back

but I'm feeling fine.

You're not the angel you make out to be

the road you think you're on

it blinds you tell me can you see

and did you ever make it clear for me

fear for me

did you shead a tear for me?



I see you

and hear the things you say you are

I see thru

we all do

but it's gotten you this far

what you do

and what you say

and what you feel

is meaningless until

we all allow it to be real

You're running reckless

rampant around in rage

you keep yourself so high

your feet never touch the stage

and do you ever stop to think

about the mess you've made

or do you wait until

you find a war wage



There you are

and once again

you'll never know where you are

you're never far from where you're gonna go

you know I thought by now

you'd stumble on to better things,

The thing is now

I don't know why you don't know what it means.
