Compass Rose

It comes and goes freely anywhere
Wherever it likes to go
Yesterday it was here but today is somewhere else
Like a driftwood floating
Like a kite flying with no string
Draws a thousand different lines
Shapes its awkward outline

It stays however it likes to be
But always dreams something else to be
So yesterday it surely was but today is obviously not
Like a driftwood floating
Like a kite flying with no string
Draws a thousand different lines
Shapes its outline

Are you waiting 'til it's over
'Til the end of what you smolder
You had enough of rolling over
Get up and take a compass rose
Are you still crying over
Losing track of where you are now
It's time to wake up and do take a compass rose
Bloom it on your heart
It will lead you home and let you know where to go

Bloom it on your heart
It will lead you home and let you know where you need to go
Keep it on your heart
It will lead you home and let you know where you need to go
