A non-magnetic compass
It points without direction
It knows just what it wants
But no way of how to get it
It's led me to a crossroads
Deserted and uncharted
But time continues endless
I try to sleep to stop it
But I could see the shape of things
Of what's to come the future brings
On and on I'll chase a dream
To help my brain feel safe in sleep each day
Don't think too hard now
We're just young
New people fill the spaces
The crossroads population
We may not have direction
At least we have companions
A train roars in the distance
And smoke plumes billow from it
My compass gaining traction
Our eyes light up to greet it
Is this all we've waited for
Salvation from external sources
Placed in our lap stay the course
We'll judge you purely based on decor
But I could see the shape of things
Of what's to come the future brings
On and on I'll chase a dream
To help my brain feel safe from sleep each day
Don't think too hard now
We're just young
