What Is

You can't depend on your eyes
when your imagination is out of focus,
you've always known you were bound for greatness
and you were right.

So forget yourself and go to work.

I could listen to you talk
but talk is cheap,
tell you what I'm thinking
these thoughts I'd rather keep.
I might wait until you understand
but that could take too long,
try and paint a picture
for you to only see it wrong.

You can't depend on good judgement
when your reason is clouded with insecurity,
you've always had exactly what it takes
to beat the best.

So come what may and love it.

I could listen to you talk
but talk is cheap,
tell you what I'm thinking
these thoughts I'd rather keep.
I might wait until you understand
but that could take too long,
try and paint a picture
for you to only see it wrong.

You can't depend on a positive future
when your present is a disappointed past,
you've always been a pillar of strength
to everyone but you.

So live and learn and love again.

Please, live and learn and love again.
