Virgin Guitar

I'm awake and I'm crazy, in the past I was doomed
 And I can't think of anything to describe what I do
 It's just the last breath, catching the next breath I suppose
 My heart is aimless, this much I know
 They gave me this virgin guitar, you ain't got no songs
 And I've no one to sing to, but I'll keep pressing on
 I ain't your first choice, you ain't my first choice, I know
 But I'll be your lone voice, my darkness you'll absorb
 The water is deep, child, and the river is long
 And I'll lay my head here, but I won't call it home
 You want a journey, I'm on a journey with no
 No destination, we're on our own
 Oh why do I worry, I'm supposed to be lost
 Like some floating ember, at a brand new Pentecost
 We need the bad things, to make the good things, I know
 I hear them singing, no rain, no rose
