Passing Over


 

They told me that you’re crazy

But it came as no surprise

I knew it when your madness

Was just an infant on the rise

 

The fountains are spewing pennies

Rejecting all your dreams

And the maze just can’t handle

All the convoluted schemes

 

I have never ever known what you wanted me to do

So I am just passing over the place where you passed through

 

The janitor opened the graveyard

So you could pick the stone

That would fit all your memories

Of the place that you called home

 

And the dead began to walk

In the heartbreak of your mind

Now your soul is lost forever

As your rage just made you blind

 

There’s no sense that I can give you to help you find a clue

So I am just passing over the place where you passed through

 

In the court where all the jesters

Drink to your health in vain

And the laughter in the towers

Spark the neurons of your brain

 

All the worlds are lost and gone

As your backs against the wall

And the leaves have left the trees

In the discontent of your fall

 

I am waving you goodbye and that’s the best I can do

Because I am just passing over the place where you passed through
