lyrics

When I am nothing, I will be everything
And light that the darkness brings will reveal that we are one
for my wake does not guide my ship
and soundwaves and brainwaves and lightwaves emit their spell
still the swells remain unexplained

So I follow that sound to a higher ground, follow that sound to a higher ground
So I follow that sound to a higher ground, follow higher ground sink into sound
Never lost and never found, always searching searching for new ground
Till I come back around said I come back around yeah

CHORUS
These answers I seek they will not be found tonight
Cause true answers are questions true questions are lessons and blessings obsessions in this life
and I can’t repeat all that I’ve heard not every word no not every word
but the things that stick they seem to fit to a script that will teach me wrong from right

Woah Let the swells and the waves come and rock my ship I said… X4

Open up your heart it’s a start don’t let the hard times tear your world apart you know a woman once said
If you shield the mountain from the windstorm, you’ll never see the beauty of the carvings
I could run away but I’ll stay and be with you away is just a place one remains unchanged
Sooner or later you’ll run out of places to run to

I give you my word, I will take things in stride and ask questions every day
and answers I’ve heard, won’t be written in stone but permutations of some holy truth
I won’t let the hard times rule me, Cling to the good times only run me aground
So I come back around said I come back around yeah

Chorus
