I’m A Twenty First Century Man

I’m A Twenty First Century Man

By Paul McCann

I arrived on a hill from my travels far away

from the places I’ve seen to here where I’ve been and gone     .

I don’t know what’s been happening so please don’t ask me

because I’ve only just landed here at dawn you see   .

I’m here on a hill , filled with dreams of things that could be  

In a place where I feel I don’t belong .

God help me   

 Surrounded by strangers who want to know where I’m from     

I’ve  got nothing to say and their questioning goes on

So they took me away to a strange place I don’t know

and here’s where I am far from where I wish I could go

I can’t run away because here’s where I have to stay

 With all of  these strangers who happened to come my way

I’ve  seen things no one knows and I have walked on strange ground

running around in rings , finding things in lost and found

Some people would often say you’re not from around here.

Because I’ve been travelling from places far and near

I’m a 21^st Century man , lost in between

a dream and a place in my head that no one has seen

 So let me go now from here at the dawn of the day,

Can’t you see , let me be , for I must be on my way ,
