|
EVERYTHING YOU FEEL |

WILL COME BACK |

TO KNEEL WITH YOU |

EVERYTHING YOU SAY |
|
EVERYTHING YOU TRY |
|
WILL COME OUT |
|
SOUNDING LIKE A LIE |
|
EVERYTHING YOU TRUST |
|
EVERYTHING YOU KNOW |
|
WILL TURN TO DUST |
|

|
mary had a little lamb |
|
its fleece was...oh... |
|
mama mama |
|
I searched these hills for my sweet lamb |
|
I carried myself up the mountain |
|
And 5 men came out |
|
And I laid myself down |
|
And I looked around |
|
And I couldn't find my sweet lamb |
|
I'm looking for my Bottom Line |
|
And as soon as I find it |
|
I'm gonna turn my life around |
|
oh my...oh my my my...oh my Mother |
|
oh my...oh my my my...oh my Brother |
|
YOU'RE FLOATING IN A HARBOUR |
|
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT |
|
AND YOU'RE LOOKING ALL AROUND YOU |
|
AND YOU CAN'T SEE ANY LIGHT |
|
AND THE BLACK AND STARLESS HEAVENS |
|
WEIGH DOWN UPON YOUR SOUL |
|
AND YOU FACE THE OPEN SEA |
|
AND YOU'RE NOT SURE THAT YOU WANNA GO |
|
AND YOU SCAN THE HORIZON |
|
BUT THE ONLY LIGHT YOU FIND |
|
IS IN THE PLACE YOU CAME FROM |
|
THE PLACE YOU LEFT BEHIND |
|
OH SO YOU'RE MOVING OUT |
|
MOVING OUT |
|
MOVING OUT |
|
CUTTING THE CORDS |
|
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING |
|
AND YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MAPS |
|
AND THE ONLY THING YOU'RE SURE OF |
|
IS YOU AIN'T...GOING...BACK |
|
1. YOU WILL BE BORN INTO A STRANGE AND DESOLATE PLACE. |
|
2. IT WILL BE CALLED "THE AVERAGE HOME." |
|
3. THE TIMES WILL BE RESTLESS AND FULL OF UNCERTAINTY. |
|
4. YOU WILL SILENTLY QUESTION THIS OF YOUR MOTHER AS YOU WATCH HER MOVE AWAY. |

|
5. THERE WILL BE NO ANSWER. |
|
6. YOU WILL BEGIN THE LONG PROCESS OF SHUTTING DOWN. |
|
7. YOUR COUNTENANCE WILL REFLECT LESS LIGHT AND LATER WHEN YOU LOOK |
|
AT PICTURES OF YOURSELF YOU WILL WONDER. |
|
8. YOU WILL GIVE UP YOUR BACKBONE TO THE T.V. AND ACCEPT A VALUE SYSTEM |
|
9. PUTTING FORTH LIES, HATRED AND INTOLERANCE IN THE NAME OF LOVE AS ACCEPTABLE. |
|
10. NO ONE WILL STEP FORWARD FROM THE SHADOWS SAYING: "EXPECT THIS, IT IS PART OF THE PATH." |
|
11. YOU WILL DISCOVER DRUGS AND ALCOHOL. |
|
12. YOU WILL INSTINCTIVELY MOVE TOWARDS YOUR OWN BOTTOM LINE. |

13. YOU WILL RUSH HEADLONG TOWARDS YOUR BOTTOM LINE IN AN INSTINCTIVE ATTEMPT TO HEAL. |
|
14. YOU WILL GO TO AA TO LEARN WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE LEARNED IN SUNDAY SCHOOL. |
|
15. AND THEN YOU WILL GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO CRY. AND YOU WILL CRY AND CRY AND CRY. |
|
16. AND YOUR FRIENDS WILL MOVE AWAY NERVOUSLY AND YOU'LL FEEL LIKE A FOOL. |
|
17. AND NO ONE WILL STEP FORWARD FROM THE SHADOWS SAYING |

18. "THE JOURNEY FORWARD INCLUDES MOVEMENT INTO DESPAIR." |
|
19. AND YOU WILL BE GATHERING STRENGTH |
|
20. EVEN AS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. |
|
21. AND CERTAIN WORDS LIKE LOVE AND... |

22. INTEGRITY WILL BE DRAWN INTO YOUR SPINE. |
|
23. AND THEN ONE DAY... |
|
24. YOU WILL TURN OFF THE T.V. |
