Too Deep
Here goes nothing
Here goes everything in my simple mind
Yeah, there used to be a time I’d trade it all for what you think
I'd hope for lies
I understand you’d be surprised
You were bound to be
No, you never were expecting anything at all from me
You're too deep, is that why you think you know me?
Is that why you read my simple mind and still don’t find
whatever you think you need
Fight or flight if ever we two should meet and someday might
That’s what really bothered me:
you never really understanding
If I obsess, you win for relentlessness
We come undone by process of your denigration
How the hell were we supposed to be?
You're too deep, is that why you think you know me?
Is that why you read my simple mind and still don’t find
whatever you think you need
All the words you can have for nothing
For what it’s worth, you have everything
I might have what we had in common
But, you know me...
As we live a life of ease, every one of us has all we need
You're too deep, is that why you think you know me?
Is that why you read my simple mind and still don’t find
whatever you think you nee
This Time
I used to think that it was only me the way my world collides
with every truth I seek and how I couldn’t keep myself
from falling deep into the waiting void that I have left in me
You used to think that it was only you the way my world revolved
around the things you do and how I couldn’t keep myself <
from falling through into the waiting void
and how that still seems true
If I was made to fly and you were gone could I,
without the strings you tie, make it and make it alone
this time . I’ve never come this far
I used to keep a little piece of mind
I kept it tucked behind my ear
a little light that I could ride away
upon in troubled times it’s just another part of me
that I can’t find
I’ve never come this far but I know I want to stay here
for the moment I can see why you had to let me feel this way
I wouldn’t cry if I didn’t know that I could have been here yesterday
but I wouldn’t have tried without you on my side,
if you hadn’t let me go and you didn’t want to know if I was...
made to fly and you were gone
could I, without the strings you tie,
make it and make it alone
this time
