    Sometimes I forget where I came from and where I'm going. This song, like most of my songs, wrote itself - it is a reminder of "what happened." "Maya" is the sanskrit word for "illusion."

    Credits: Written and Performed By Michael Joseph Ferguson

    Story Behind the Song
    This was recorded a day or so after I wrote the song. It is part of what I'm calling "The Little Plastic Microphone Sessions."

    Lyrics
    Born into this cradle I
    Hear the words I'll soon be speaking
    And heaven seems
    so far away now

    Christened by and hypnotized
    By these words I'll soon be speaking
    And heaven seems
    so far away now

    And soon
    I'll be sleeping
    Set adrift in Maya
    Drifting in Maya
    Drifting in Maya
    Drifting in Maya
    Set adrift in Maya

    I'll want to pretend
    I'm not the one I am
    Deep inside behind the veil
    The carnal masquerade
    Wears my bones and skin away
    But I'll try to treat them well

    Because soon
    I'll be sleeping...

    But this silver cord connects me
    With my home

    But this silver cord connects us
    With our home

    Our home

    Set adrift in Maya

    I saw my own face
    And went into a reverie
    How many years has it been?
    Drifting in Maya
    Drifting in Maya
    Drifting in Maya

    Set adrift in Maya
