I bet you're wondering if you woke today |
|
Just to learn why the caged bird sings |
|
I bet you're wondering if the goddesses are all crazy |
|
Or just keeping it interesting |
|
Situated slightly outside society |
|
At odds with its odd offerings |
|
I bet you're teetering on the edge of sobriety |
|
Just to alleviate a few things |
|
Like the fear that you're standing here 'cause you want to be liked |
|
Like you know you need your instrument |
|
But does your instrument need to be mic'd |
|
And you keep imagining that pretty soon |
|
You will just disappear |
|
And thinking that one thing is what saves you from |
|
Your fear of being here |
|
Here for now, you're here for now, you're here for now |
|
I bet you're looking for the little red ' |
|
X'Next to the red arrow and the words ' |
|
You are here' |
|
I bet you're hoping that your heart will send up the white flag this time |
|
Or some sign that the coast is clear |
|
And the moment when your heart jumps it's all that's happening |
|
And once again it's like the first time you felt that shock |
|
Yeah, the moment when your heart jumps it's all that's happening |
|
And I was right behind the door when you knocked |
|
Thinking maybe |
|
I'm just standing here 'cause |
|
I want to be liked |
|
Yes, I know |
|
I need my instrument |
|
But does my instrument need to be mic'd |
|
I keep imagining that pretty soon, |
|
I will just disappear |
|
And thinking that one thing is what saves me from |
|
My fear of being here |
|
Here for now, |
|
I'm here for now, |
|
I'm here for now |
|
Here for now, |
|
I'm here for now, |
|
I'm here for now |
