david crosby - compass lyrics
intro. (acoustic guitar)
i have wasted ten years in a (flind –) blind-fold
ten-fold more than i’ve invested now in sight
i have traveled beveled mirrors in a fly crawl
losing the reflection of a fight
but like a comp-ss seeking north
there lives in me a still sure spirit part
clouds of doubt are cut asunder
by the lightning and the thunder
shining from the comp-ss of my heart
i have flown the frantic flight of the bat-wing
and only known the dark because of that
i have seized death’s door-handle
like a fish out of the water
waiting, waiting for the mercy of the cat
but like a comp-ss seeking north
there lives in me a still sure spirit part
clouds of doubt are cut asunder
by the lightning and the thunder
shining from the comp-ss of my heart
