From the recording Ashland
Lyrics
Oh lord looking down upon my face what do you see?
Am I the same that I once was when I was young?
Or am I a man who’s someone else entirely?
A stranger in the room when I’m alone?
I’m tired and I’m weird, foolish and a feared
All I know is henry poole is here
-
Oh lord looking down upon my life and what I’ve done
Can you believe the stupid things that I had planned?
With all of the times I’ve tried and failed and failed again
How can I try to do what I don’t understand?
I throw my hands and jeer, expectations disappeared
All I know is henry poole is here
-
Don’t wake me up no no
I’d rather stay than go
Where all the pain is stored and ignored
-
Oh lord when I look upon your face what do I see?
Are you just a faint impression on my wall?
Or are you a man who’s someone else entirely
A friend to those that never know at all?
You drive but I can steer, crazy but it’s clear
All I know is henry poole is here
