The silent one revealed himself today as we came out of a meditation. He feels so lost and maybe depressed or confused. We're kinda feeling out of balance since he showed up. Why are we saying anything? We don't really know, but it often helps us to write.

It's Always There

There's a trail of pain
That starts in the ar-e-a of you,
No matter how far you run,
It's... always there.

There's an emptiness
That somehow... is never filled.
No matter how much I try,
It's always there.

Well, you can't hide the past so well
And you can't ignore the tears that swell.
You can't touch what's deep inside
And you can't bury
what's not yours to hide....

Look into the mirror....
What kinda monsters do you see?

Oh, don't re-mind me....

Nobody sees
Where each rainbow ends
And nobody knows
Where the shadows slip in....

Nobody knows
Where we've gone some days,
Nobody knows
Or they just don't care....

Well, you can't hide the past so well
And you can't ignore the tears that swell.
You can't touch what's buried inside
But you all laughed....
The day my spirit died....

Nobody knows, where the rainbow ends....
Nobody saw, the shadows slip in....
Nobody knows, or they just don't care....
No matter how much I hide....
It's always there.
