Lost In The Wax

Words and Music By Trabue Gentry

Too many times
We repeat the same old lines
And expect them all to listen
Who expect the words to glisten
With excitement
And revelation
Like a friend who should receive you
Turns his back and then deceives you
And is gone
Once again
In the wax

Now you know
It's time to go
And remember all the words
In songs by the Byrds
Of many years ago

You should be proud
When you sing your songs so loud
That you make them all forget
All the things we all regret
Such as sorrow
And the weakness
Like a friend who would defend you
Turns his back and then befriends you
And is gone
Once again
In the wax

Now you see
We've got to be
Stronger than the ones
Who have put us on the run
From what we used to be
