Control's illusion

Sometimes it goes so smoothly. It's like you're in control
and everything just falls in place
and there's Peace within your soul

Everything is right on track
your spirit rides on rails
you don't miss the things you lack
an nothing you do fails

Then sometimes you hit a wall
and everything just falls apart
broken dreams explode in you
like shrapnel in your heart

The smoke from burned out hope
stings your watering eyes
You think if nothing folks do works,
how come anybody tries?

And when you think objectively,
there's a scary thought to face:
When things go smooth or things break down,
Where's God in either place?
