The Right Track

What to recommend to someone stuck in a dead end
Who's seemingly unable to locate
The spirit of their youth, the comfort of a truth
As if they lost an element of fate
How to reconnect with an insular intellect
That forgot to listen to the will
Of a slumbering heart
Waiting to take part
In this steep, long distance walk uphill

If I refrain from doing the only thing that ever felt right
If I should hold myself
Hold myself back
If I leave my courage on the shelf
Then I just might
Lose the light
Slowly leading me towards the right track

Now looking sideways, a spirit set ablaze
I make a turn across the wilderness
The inner argument solved by the commitment
To no longer tame this eagerness

If I refrain from doing the only thing that ever felt right
If I should hold myself
Hold myself back
If I leave my courage on the shelf
Then I just might
Lose the light
Slowly leading me towards the right track

Like a house cat who abhors the arrogance of closed doors
I am not willing to tolerate
That I should be denied what's on the other side
Why should I turn around at the gate

If I refrain from doing the only thing that ever felt right
If I should hold myself
Hold myself back
If I leave my courage on the shelf
Then I just might
Lose the light
Slowly leading me towards the right track
