G
The picture is far too big to look at kid. Your eyes won't open wide enough
and you are constantly surrounded by that swirling stream of what is and what
was.
C G
Well, we've all made our predictions but the truth still isn't out.
D
So if you want to see the future, go stare into a cloud.
And keep trying to find your way out of that maze of memories.
It all sort of looks familiar, but then you get up close and it's different.
clearly.
Each time you turn a corner, you are right back to where you were
and your only hope is that forgetting might make a door appear.
Is it your fear of being buried that makes you so afraid to speak?
An avalanche of opinions like the one that feel that I am now underneath.
It was my voice that moved the first rock and I would do it all again.
So, I mean, it's cool if you keep quiet, but I like singing.
D
So I'll be holding my note and stomping and strumming and feeling so very

lucky.
D
There is nothing I know except that this lifetime is just one moment
G

and make you more aware with its absence at night,
C G

D G
But I have seen the day of your awakening boy and it's coming soon.

but it isn't what you are thinking it's the course of history, your position
in line.
You are just a piece of the puzzle so I think you had better find your place.
