Feels like a palisade in ground
Water floods and lifts us to heaven's borderlands
Still passing time but breaking down
Don't say it's all alright
I'm not faking it this time
My blood was mine but now it runs
With souls who lay and reach out for my hand
What life is this that makes the sound
Of sheets in hallway light
Of making it through the night
I am pretty much the same
I mean
Except for how I've changed
Or mended
Sometimes someone holds a mirror up to you
And instead of staring back
You stare right through
To another you
But you can keep the band
Fall forward into change
Doesn't mean you go away
What part of "I hear you" don't you understand
What part of "I'm distracted" don't you understand
What part of "I'm angry"
Leave all my mystery on the ground
Dig 'till I feel my center trembling
Write down the words I'm speaking now
And be alright
With things that aren't alright
