Litany

I've hitched a ride

and crossed the line to many times.

Into the night

as black as day is bright.



Don't you know it goes to show,

the damage done how slow I have become.



It's day and night, black and white,

dark and light at the same time



Now I see it through older eyes.

We suffer the same

all smothered in shame.

I know this as I know my own name.



I've hitched a ride

and crossed the line to many times.

Into the night

as dark as day is light



Don't you know I've got to go from dusk till dawn,

we're breaking into song



It's dark and light, black and white, day and night

at the same time



All these mixed emotions

in the dim twilight.



Please light up my life.

Before I meet my maker.

And stop tracing the truth.



Keep poring over the past keep poring

Nothing will last, nothing will last

From season to season, from season to season

Suppose it stands to reason

But I know my history

A losers litany
