Late Night

Late night
Carried by the wind
It took such a long time
To make up my own mind
Everything is changing
But I would not attempt to control you

I never could help myself
I waste my time
It's taking a toll on my health
I waste my own time
Like Mary Magdalene I'm on my knees again
But if you see me as a saint
You'd be mistaken

Late night turning into morning blue
It took such a long time
To make up my own mind about you
Now the sun hangs heavy
And I can't even lift my eyes
To where it sits indifferently
Unmoved, mover of the sky

I never could help myself
I waste my time
It's taking a toll on my health
I waste my own time
Like Mary Magdalene I'm on my knees again
But if you see me as a saint
You'd be mistaken

I am the master of my ship
My ship the master of the sea
Through a rhetorical distinction
I think I'm finally
Feeling free
For the first time

For the first time
