lyrics

You’re asking me if I understand
I don’t know, I just do what I can
If it’s not enough, well that’s fine
I’ll make it up in my own sweet time
If you don’t mind, I’m just gonna live my life
Not to trim, but to leave all alone, bears a little more fruit when it gets full grown

So now as I lean over your meaning’s edge
And I cope with the dizziness of the things that you have left unsaid
Then when I wake and I rise up from my bed
And I try to remember the source of the line, but I realize I’m out of my head
So I lay back down, and I close my eyes
And I notice it’s all very clear, it just took me a while to realize

Now the waters are rising, and the river’s swole
And the fish rise up like birds, and the rays of light beam into my soul
So I scan the horizon searching for the stone
And I know when the time is right, I will have to head out on my own
When I was young, they tried to clip my wings
Now I’m older, and a little more wise, and I try not to dwell upon these things
