Jump the Track

In this light
 The dust is visible
 Glowing
 Golden atmosphere
 Even the air I breathe
 Is full of memories
 Shades of others
 Bathe my skin
 And since I am alone
 I wonder
 Who on earth would ever know
 If I slipped into the other side
 Without making a sound
 Without blinking an eye
 Without slowing down at all
 I could jump the track
 Still the wheels are turning
 Landscapes echo in my mind
 Flying past my windows
 How could anyone fear this place
 And since I am alone
 I wonder
 Who on earth
 Would ever guess
 If I crossed this fragile strand that binds
 Without making a noise
 Without skipping a beat
 Without slowing down at all
 I could jump the track
 And what were specters now have faces
 Casting light
 In darkened places
 Those that I have loved
 Are with me
 Never gone
 But ever drifting
 Through the threads of my existence
 Courses
 Running
 Side by side
 Paths entwining
 Realigning
 Meeting past the great divide
 In the realm where phantoms hide
 Sanctified
 Occupied
 And since I am alone
 I wonder
 Who on earth would ever care
 If I slipped away before my time
 Without saying a word
 Without praying to god
 Without slowing down at all
 I could jump the track
 I could jump the track
 I could jump...
