Song of the Week: Invisible Prison

This week's song is called Invisible Prison from Brian Simpson.  Great song.  Great message that perfectly encapsulates how I have felt over the last two years.

Mile markers passing by me

Still remind me of the dream I had

But now empty slogans and worn out anthems

Are all retreating while the road gets fat

Now I’m faced with my hardest decision

It never turns out quite the way you envision

Yesterday’s gone and from its ashes I’ve risen

I’m breaking out of my invisible prison

Broken valleys and open spaces

The only traces left of what I’m looking for

But now I’m starting over by digging under

Deeper than I’d gone before

Now I’m faced with my hardest decision

It never turns out quite the way you envision

Yesterday’s gone and from its ashes I’ve risen

I’m breaking out of my invisible prison

Almost empty from all the waiting

My old dreams fading as a new one’s born

Restless winds blow all around me

Taking me towards orange shores

Now I’m faced with my hardest decision

It never turns out quite the way you envision

Yesterday’s gone and from its ashes I’ve risen

I’m breaking out of my invisible prison
