lyrics
Toward
written by Phil Hummer
something's going wrong inside my mind
i can't leave my troubled ways behind
i keep getting them cuffs on tight
and sitting in the jail house all damn night
lord guide me towards the light
there is something besides the alcohol driving me on
some kind of sick stark sadness is pushing me along
i feel it rising off the street from footprints of a million feet
lord guide me towards thy kingdom sweet
i feel that i'm reacting to science and man
i don't feel like i'm fitting in with mother nature's plan
i heard a little bird singing up there on the pole
he's singing lord guide me towards being whole
i've been feeling long gone from the faces that i've seen
a million hungry eyes are burning holes inside of me
i wish i was a fish swimming out there on the tide
singing lord guide me towards thy side
