Lost in the Fields

Smoke rising at dawn, feels like a thousand years loss

Stories left unsaid, a cross I never could toss

Swore I'd be a hero, chasing lights in the night

Flames and sirens called me, but couldn't make it right

Grandpa's old stories, roots in Indiana soil

Aim for the sky, but sometimes life just uncoils

Wake up in the shadows, where my fears reside

Heart heavy with memories I can’t divide

Proud if you see me, from the great beyond

Walking this lonely road, where I belong

Lost in the echoes, of dreams I can't show

Trying to find peace, in this quiet country glow

Traded the ambulance for empty hands, struggling to stand

Farmer’s fields whisper, wish I knew where I was land

Countless nights wondering, if I ever made you proud

Drowning in the silence, head held low in this lonely cloud

Eyes on the horizon, hoping for a sign

Holding onto love, that’s pure and divine

Proud if you see me, from the great beyond

Walking this lonely road, where I belong

Lost in the echoes, of dreams I can't show

Trying to find peace, in this quiet country glow

Mama’s tears, papa’s pride, still in my mind

Fighting through this darkness, till I find that light

Hope’s just a whisper, in the fields of Indiana

One day I’ll find my way, where my soul will be free

So here I stand, in the rain and the dust

Living and loving, in the dreams I must

Know you’re watching, from the endless blue

Grandpa, I still wanna make you proud too
