TUMBLER - Written by Carroll Bryant

So who are you?

Caught in a game of give and take

You’re looking for direction

So confused

Here you are

Engaged to all of your delicacies

Full of lame perceptions

A bit aloof

And you wish this world a better way

Still to leave and never stay this time

You still find

That it won’t be the same

Go crazy

I need to remind you

That it will be too late

My lady

Somersault into another life

Take this hand

Follow another dizzy leader

Find refuge in a sacred heart

Call it home

Contemplate

Pick your choice of greedy breeders

You’re a woman with connections

Texting alone

You while your time with bitter ache

Shake too much and never break your style

You still smile

And it won’t be the same

Go crazy

I need to remind you

That it will be too late

My lady

Somersault into another life

So who are you?

Caught in a trivial repositioning

You’re looking for security

Under broken lights

Here you are

Divorced from all your centricities 

Acting like you did before

Aging like wine

And you wish this world a better way

Still to leave and never stay this time

You still find

That it won’t be the same

Go crazy

I need to remind you

That it will be too late

My lady

Somersault into another life
