MC-53

i was running
but something caught my eye
is that indifference i see staring back at me?
i was shocked
i paused and wondered
i looked down and saw my shoes
i fell silent to hear my heart beating
yeah, it's still there

i pulled out a map
made sure i knew where i was going
but i had no idea
am i heading for certain indifference?

so i fell silent again
and i heard my heart beckoning
i reached out to touch it
and realized it's hardly breathing

so i realize i cannot care anymore
i need to brave the valley
i need to fight the demons
and i am going to go to that place
where indifference is a risk i have to take

maybe you're already there
feeling indifferent in your own way
we all feel the pain
we just speak it differently
but i guess, in the end
it's a mystery

i can only pray that you'll find your way
and that indifference will never find you

but for now
i am going to that place
a place where there are no walls
a place where there are no windows
a place where i can stop running
and who knows?
maybe my feeble heart will beat again
and these shoes will dance in the rain again
