When Things Go Crazy


A man sat down to tie his lace
These shoes he's walked, from place to place
A tired soul; it's been a long day

Got magic touch wherever he goes
The rain falls down and hard wind blows
No time to lose but he's gotta stay
Standing in the shadows of the path he chose
Is he gonna make it? Nobody knows

When things go crazy, turn the page
When out of touch, out of range
You gotta make up your mind and make the change

Fear is the way we live today
For hard cash we lie, for hard cash we pray
These games we play won't take us far

Time is a healer but time after time
We keep on running after nickel and dime
It's a tug of war, we lose and deplore

In this mighty river, waves hit hard
If you want to win, play the right card

When things go crazy, turn the page
When out of touch, out of range
You gotta make up your mind and make the change

It's time for me to stop this race
It wasn't the hunt but the thrill of the chase
I need to wind down, gain my serenity

I hurt myself but I won't show
Sometimes in life we need to know
A moment alone feels like eternity

Well let's stop it here and end this poem
Gotta take the train, get back home

When things go crazy, turn the page
When out of touch, out of range
You gotta make up your mind and make the change
