Caught

Caught

Caught up in a network of wrecks and ruin
Paid for by the people that brought you hope
So well conceived you'd think that what you're doing
Has never gone too far to have a stop
Don't take your eyes off the complications
All the twists and ties of a happy home
All chaos keeps us in fine condition
To move fast at last once the time has really come
Caught up -
Caught up in the wake of a sudden moment
Waiting on banks of reflecting pools
We face each other in a trust and torment
Dive - drink to drown - sink or swim along in schools
Knocked down to earth and then resurrected
Glowing with heat & breathing dust
Shook-off for the moment or circumvented
Only long enough to remember what we must
Caught up -
