"I Talk to the Wind." - King Crimson

For some reason, "In the Court of the Crimson King" has been on constant repeat on my CD player for days and days. There is something about this record that speaks to me. This time. This place. This NOW.

I do this too... all day, everyday...

I Talk to the Wind

[Verse 1]

Said the straight man to the late man

"Where have you been?"

I've been here and I've been there

And I've been in between

[Chorus]

I talk to the wind

My words are all carried away

I talk to the wind

The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

[Verse 2]

I'm on the outside looking inside

What do I see?

Much confusion, disillusion

All around me

[Chorus]

I talk to the wind

My words are all carried away

I talk to the wind

The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

[Verse 3]

You don't possess me, don't impress me

Just upset my mind

Can't instruct me or conduct me

Just use up my time

[Chorus]

I talk to the wind

My words are all carried away

I talk to the wind

The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

I talk to the wind

My words are all carried away

I talk to the wind

The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

[Verse 1]

Said the straight man to the late man

"Where have you been?"

I've been here and I've been there

And I've been in between
