I Found a Direction


i found a direction
in a discount clearance rack
marked down from infinity
so i gave it a whack
i gave the cashier 20 bucks
she smiled and went insane
i left with a direction
and no one knows my name

it isn't east, it isn't west
it isn't north or south
it isn't some combination
so please just shut your mouth
it isn't fifth dimensional
it's not heaven, it's not hell
it's taking me on a journey
where i go i'll never tell

back home they are all wondering
just where it was i went
is this this the greatest miracle
or am i just out getting bent
since my flesh is 3D
mostly water, not much gasses
will i see me vaporize
without my special glasses?

i found a direction
different from all the rest
my compass cannot find it
nor can my GPS
it led me to a trap door
in the basement of my mind
please feed the pets and kiss my wife
 remember to be kind

i found a direction

and no one knows my name

it isn't north or south
it isn't some combination
so please just shut your mouth
it isn't fifth dimensional
it's not heaven, it's not hell
it's taking me on a journey
where i go i'll never tell
