The Advice to Travel Light

A friend of mine

Said I do need a reason not to travel light

I’m turning blind to excess

So it’s hard to draw the line

I never said

That I won’t ever settle for a little less

Now let me out

Let me out

If I really fail

To get up again

Consider me blind

To the moments I crave

It is time to head on out

If I never cope

With the overflow

Consider me out

And then do as I don’t

You’re advised to travel light

My mind is slow

I don’t know how to process all the subtle signs

My soul is scarred

And I feel like I’m being pulled apart

I’m tripping up and I fall

As I feel a strange delight

Now let me out

Let me out

If I really fail

To get up again

Consider me blind

To the moments I crave

It is time to head on out

If I never cope

With the overflow

Consider me out

And then do as I don’t
