Can you see the other side?
With the radio blaring
And these songs stir your insides
But sometimes silence is a blessing in the making
Till it's ruined by a sound from your own mouth
And can you do without a burn for the taking
Is there anything you can do without?
Little noises kind of sassy
And the background is tied in knots
Lose your nerve and loose your stomach
It's a toss-up not a cross
It doesn't need to be like a messy river flowing
To be perfect from a time when nothing's right
Each night you write that you're still growing
Will you finally just let it be right?
Love it
Not enough to work against the wind
When you've heard a blown-out engine
With a broken tool to fix it
Not enough to cry your sorrow again
Story ends as a comedy with tears
Wipe them with whatever you cry for
And forget that you bet
That nothing helps
Is the hill almost over?
The other side is green
With the radio turned off
And a spilling silent sheen
Run, run, run if you need to
But please keep in heart that you're ruining yourself
Tell me if you want the thoughts
That you stuffed away on the very top shelves
Cause with extra knowledge
Even if it's right
You distract the parts you let
Into the game of life
It's easy to silence what you don't want to hear
But you should be trying to make it much more clear
Sometimes it's a blessing in the making
Sometimes you ruin it with your own mouth
You can do without a burn for the taking
There is a lot you can do without
