Sometimes True To Nothing

You're not the only one
who thinks they're the only one
to feel this numb, in spite of the
distance you've come.

Light comes in through the eyes.
(It's) something that you recognize,
but you've ignored, cause nobody
told you what to ask for.

The heart is a wilderness
with beauty and emptiness
that you endure, cause you
never can be sure.

...and it rolls and it tumbles forward,
and it pushes the envelope,
'cause it's nowhere and everywhere,
and it's breaking your heart to watch it.

In case you're the only one-
nobody else's child,
stay here you're mine, there's gotta be
something you can find here.

It hurt so you took it out.
You're gonna work it out.
No visible line could possibly define...

...and it's hiding up there in the corner,
like a child you're in the need of protection,
and it keeps you as long as you let it,
and it holds you 'til it's all you are,
and it pushes the envelope,
'til it freezes your need to reconnect,
and you've grown to depend upon it,
and it's breaking your heart- watch it go.
