you went looking for a voice but you found this song instead
you keep hoping for a choice but you sing these words in dread
of revealing the feelings you know that you feel of unsealing the dealings of gods with your soul
of repeating the meeting of halves in a whole of decoding the meaning of what you're all for
you keep striving toward your goal but it slips and slides away
till you finally gain control of the lips that silence pays
it's a heartache to wake up and look in the mirror sets you reeling when feelings are suddenly clear
and you're able to open the door without fear of decoding the meaning of what you're all for
you've been working so many years at imbalance in your brain
who can see that all those tears you've been storing up like [g]rain
are for tomorrow's sowing time when you'll start the same new game?
you don't know you can't know exactly who you are
but when you take chances you shine like a star
