Lyrics

[00:20.02] Is there a place where the ground won’t move?
[00:29.06] A carefully organized, single room
[00:37.37]
[00:39.34] I’d search every corner, exposing my lies
[00:49.40] So nothing is left as a nasty surprise
[00:57.84] I will admit
[01:01.79] As much as I would like to get it right I’m still mystified
[01:07.51] And I will admit
[01:11.13] Even with all I want to be I might just end up me
[01:19.08] I’ve been here before I never thought I’d return
[01:28.08] As if I had learned all I needed to learn
[01:38.26] But what a beautiful surprise to find, that what is found is too big to be held
[01:48.46] Saying once more there’s no solid ground
[01:57.24] I will admit
[02:00.84] As much as I would like to get it right I’m still mystified
[02:07.02] And I will admit
[02:10.32] Even with all I want to be I might just end up me
[02:17.27] Why does the earth seem to fly without having to try?
[02:28.08] Why does the sight of the mystery, move too fast to be seen?
[02:37.87] And why is the moment I find what’s here, the moment it disappears?
[02:47.71] So I sit down and stop; and look around and see,
[02:52.23] What am I trying to be? If only it were me
[02:55.41] I try not to try but tonight any more seems like less
[03:03.77] And I feel the sky laughing as each mountain-top reveals the next
[03:14.63] And I wish I could tell all that I wanted to say
[03:23.86] And I wish I could just hold it all
[03:27.14] Here in my arms and kiss it all today
[03:31.62] I will admit
[03:36.36] As much as I would like to get it right I’m still mystified
[03:43.15] And I will admit
[03:46.43] Even with all I want to be I might just end up me
[03:52.83] I will admit
[03:56.01] As much as I would like to get it right I’m still mystified
[04:03.00] And I will admit
[04:06.10] Even with all I want to be I might just end up me
[04:13.37] I try not to try; I’m still mystified.
