Equanimity, equanimity
I've got a battle that's fought inside of me
Everything gives at the seams
I am a child tiptoeing on water
Thought the waves would save, then they got hotter
Tides boiled and burned
Stems dried, and soil fried and left the ground cracked
And I found myself back upon my back
Guess that happens once in awhile
These are just the ramblings of a timid beggar seeking
Wisdom to accept the clarity he's missing
He's a wandering soul
Mister, mister, please, tell your story to me
I got a lot of time, and you're the proof that I need
To keep me keep on going
To find the air I breathe is ok (ok, ok)
How'd you overcome the pulling connected to those strings?
Sir, I really like how you worded those things
Mister, please shed some light on me
Well, I was slamming on the tabletops
And writing 'til the burning stopped
Working up the courage to forget the anger that I learned
And if you looked there was a lot
Fixed what I could manage
Reset my bones and bandages
Did what I thought was good
It gave me an advantage to live deaf to a negative world
Sir, I just don't understand how you simply sit and stare now
Content with prior sadness
But for me I know that my house hasn't been
My home in years
My mother works too hard on a father always far gone
From his wife and children
When he says he's getting work done
Haven't been close to him in years
Mister, mister, please, tell your story to me
I got a lot of time, and you're the proof that I need
To keep me keep on going
To find the air I breathe is ok (ok, ok)
How'd you overcome the pulling connected to those strings?
Sir, I really like how you worded those things
Mister, please shed some light on me
Child it's the mouth you feed
That gives you it's mind
Mister, mister please
Ours is a beautiful life (a beautiful life)
Mister, mister, please, tell your story to me
I got a lot of time, and you're the proof that I need
To keep me keep on going
To find the air I breathe is ok (ok, ok)
How'd you overcome the pulling connected to those strings?
Sir, I really like how you worded those things
Mister, please shed some light on me (on me)
