I was locked out
When I was dropped off
She let me know then that I wasn’t allowed
Her people kept themselves so isolated from the rest of us
There lie the answers
But not for my ears
She let me know then that our time had been dear
But she couldn’t compromise the strength behind her insulated life
Atlas shrugged and so did I
While sitting alone outside the gates of her city that night
Atlas shrugged which wet my eyes
How far from where I began am I now with nothing gone right
Wherever I stop
I seem to lose hope
I told myself then that it’s time to get home
I couldn’t help concluding that the journey wasn’t doing any good
I need my down deep
Head back to my cave
I told myself go where the echo noise waits
