Seeking the Dark Tower

On the path that eventually leads to the clearing in the woods, the Charyou Tree. Fraught with danger, fear and loss, and yet, fulfillment. Welcome.

Bowie blues

I know when to go out
Won't stay in;
get things done
But you're sleepy now,
Spaceboy you're sleeply now;
Your signal is so stationary
And there's still lots to do
Its a crash course for the ravens,
But we gave up that notion a long time ago.

I know when to stop
won't be the fickle mob
see things clear
But you're tired out
Spaceboy you're tired out;
Your radar has been out for decades
And there's still road ahead
Its a crash course to the moon,
as we gave up the ghost a long time ago.

So the only thing is
Dance, put on your red shoes and dance the blues
done bun can't be undone
But no one said we couldnt mourn the past
And its a crash course for the ravers
as they head out for the lights
seeking to regain what they never had

So they shake their bits
So they shake their heads,
They sway under the moonlight
But there is no empty space
To move in on
Its a crash course to the next wave
but it was given up a long time ago.

So the only thing is
Sing
Ride with the music and sing
We stand in the wind,
and never say bye bye
What we've lost
was never ours to begin with
Dont sweat the small stuff

But it makes you so high,
Gotta stop believing in
Modern love
Terrifies me
Modern love
Makes me money
Modern love
Gets me to my place in time
Modern love
walks beside me
Modern love
talks right through me
Modern love
walks on by
but gets me to that place on time!
