Not Knowing What to Say

By Bruce Clifford

All the ways we knew
Each separate point of view
There’s never an easy way
Not knowing what to say

All the times we tried
Each individual ride
There’s never a quiet day
Not knowing who’s to blame

We made it this far
We reached a distant star
Wondering why this is so hard
Knowing what we are

All the ways we knew
Each encompassing thing we do
There’s never an easy way
Not knowing what to say

All the times we cried
Each devastating lie
There’s never time and space
Falling out of grace

We made it beyond our star
A supersonic car
Wondering if we will make it that far
Knowing who we are

All the ways we knew
Each separate point of view
There’s never an easy way
Not knowing what to say
