Life in a tunnel  (Song 1)

 

Chorus

 

My life’s like a never ending tunnel

There’s no beginning as there is no end

It’s dark and I can’t see the light

And my sanity’s my only friend.

 

Verse 1

 

All I’ve ever yearned for is meaning

Some answer to my own conclusion

But every time I though I’ve known

Something shatters my illusion.

 

Verse 2

 

I’ve climbed so many new rungs

But on each I’ve had to step back

Caused by ignorance and uncertainty

Any confidence I’ve had I now lack.

 

Repeat Chorus

 

Verse 3

 

Any love I’ve had is now lost

In heaven or through infidelity

There’s no one to turn to no one to lean on

All that I’ve cherished has left me.

 

Verse 4

 

This tunnel I live in’s so narrow

Clung on every day for some light

I can’t shake off this negative thinking

I know it won’t come with hindsight.

 

Repeat Chorus
