Quickly Disappearing

Matthew Santos

In my most humble opinion, this is one of the most beautiful things you’ll listen to.

***

A walk in the wild now, just me and the wind

Like it was as a child now, now the path has grown thin

And the symphony plays on with the leaves in the breeze

With or without me, getting lost in the trees, ooo yes

Lost in the trees, ooo yes

Now I’m back on the streets under the indigo haze

Where the people you meet, just stuck in their ways

Just stuck in our ways…

I solved all my problems with a dip in the lake

I found the solution, remedy for mistakes

I heard the song singing near the silence so clear

None of my heart strings be strummed by my fears, ooo yes

By my fears, ooo yes…

Now I’m back on the streets under the indigo haze

Where the people you meet, just stuck in their ways

I’m back on the streets where the dollar holds reign

And the green turns to grey

Just stuck in our ways…

There’s a hole in my soul, love

Seems to be no fill

There’s a hole where my heart was

It’s been gone with the thrill

There’s a hole in the ground, love

Left there by a drill

There’s a hole in my soul, love

Hole in my soul…
