Walking Dust

The heart’s a funny thing
Ain’t it only just?
You can’t tell it how to feel
It just does what it does.

Sometimes feelings get returned
Your heart be on the up
Sometimes you get burned
Feel a little crushed.

But you gotta keep pushing on
For pushing on we must
And it’s all good
Cause we all just walking dust.

Lay it all out there
Without any fear
And a lot of people out there
Will quickly disappear.

You gotta learn to smile
Even when you’re crushed
The pain will be gone in awhile
And you just walking dust.

Each to their own
Is what I always say
But I lay it all out
Any fucking day.

I watch them run like hell
And I suck it all up
And I tell myself
‘You’re just walking dust’.

Then I keep pushing on
For pushing on I must
And right or wrong
In my heart I always trust.

So keep pushing on
For push on we must
And when everything go wrong
Remember, you’re just walking dust.
