Shock And Value |
It adds up spending a lifetime chasing shadows around |
Trying to change where the sun comes from |
Tracking dots on a screen, that could just be birds |
Or some one or thing that wants to come in to your home |
And live there instead of you |
You’ve got panic in your eyes, and in your mind |
Built like the columns in the sky you made for us all to climb on |
But that all got pulled down, and you had to watch it |
Digging more holes to pay for your principles |
That just get filled up, it got too much to take in |
This, this this |
Is this what you thought it would be, wanted it to be? |
Made it all up in your mind about it |
Is this where you thought it would go? |
One too many times taken away without anybody caring |
It was all too early alone in your hotel room |
Letting that broken heart guide you |
It’s only showing you more of what you’ve been having |
Behind your door on the 33rd story |
The only friends on your side are the birds on your window |
Not the ones that want to take everything you’ve made |
And use it for their own |
And tell you nothing you wanted to make made sense |
Do you want to tear the world apart or the one inside of you |
This, this this |
Is this what you thought it would be, wanted it to be? |
Made it all up in your mind about it |
Is this where you thought it would go? |
The interchange |
The currents on your fingernails |
The energy in the sky |
Where everyone can see |
Traced over and over above the trees |
And inside of them |
The birds that fly free |
And the ones that stay |
They’re made the same |
But what makes them brave? |
I think it’s struggle |
Pacing over above the trees and on them |
The towers, the gravity of it |
The walls that get built out of necessity |
Or to rip the world apart |
And make a space by cutting out the trees all around them |
The burden of being connected |
The risk of failure and no reward |
Sit down, be slow, where else can you go? |
It won’t erase all the places you’ve come from |
Is this what you thought it would be? |
Cruel world, in the hands of so few |
Where everyone can be of use |
You want gold? |
You can have it |
Dig in the ground, and question |
Ask questions |
You’re made of the same things |
You’re going into that same ground |
Is this what you wanted it to be? |
Giving ‘em both barrels |
Whatever it takes |
And picking up the pieces later |
Fighting to come alive |
Wanting to want |
To fix what’s broke |
A ghost living inside |
Of broken rusty skin |
This! |
Is this the way you thought it would go? |
Still good, mostly new |
With a brilliant love to give inside |
With nothing to hide |
Dozens have failed |
I dare you to try |
Getting it all out |
Leaving it all behind |
It’s hard to believe it’s killing you |
But it’s killing you |
Is this what you thought it would be? |
