Colliding chance and fate

Allison Krauss: Can't find my way home


Colliding chance and fate
Devils domain
Regardless of
The battle
Beautiful
Trusting gaze in
The shining of a
Child’s eyes
Or resounding 
Relief
After anxious
Moments crisis
All you have to do is believe
All you have to do is Believe
Blind Faith

Sometimes confused with
Psychosis
The belief in things
Contradictory to that seen
A blind faith
That
That car lights are on
Though no illumination
Even after
Muted midnight walk assures
Still pulling the knob
Just to check
Just to check

She had to become an angel
So that I could pretend not see the demon
Though I could
She had to become the Virgin
So that I could pretend not see the whore
Though I could

Colliding chance and fate
Devil’s domain

She
Had sold everything
For nothing
Does the
Dull ache in her lower back
Remind of the price
Of a soul
Slowly sold?
She returns to a past
That never was
To cover fear of a future
That has yet to be

Colliding chance and fate
Devils domain
