Woke up this morning with this. No idea what it means. The rhyme scheme feels a bit like Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover." I'll add (and/or subtract) to this as the week goes by.
lyrics
I hope that you don't mind
But I have added another heart
'Cause mine is breaking when yours is breaking
And my soul stumbles in the dark
And every little inch of me is being pulled apart
And I might fade away
I might run in place
I know it's now your turn
And I am willing to step aside
From the good times & the bad times
And the ones that will remind
Me of the part of my intention
I was having trouble finding
Before I fade away
Before I run in place
Before the weather trips & turns
The ocean on its head
Until the ups & downs can quench
The secret storms instead
And when the life & times are filled with
Nothing but fear & dread
You will run in place
You will fade away
We'll tighten the locks & wash the walls
With the colors of the sun
The aftershocks & bitter cold have only just begun
We take our marks but we won't wait
For the sound of the starting gun
And we will run in place
But we won't fade away
