And still stay where you are
You could wait until the right time
Resolve to make or mar
People tell you what they know
They're mostly wrong from the word go
It's under the surface
And it's up in the sky
That's why you won't reach it
So don't even try
The lines are old yet still not weakened
You don't know what to do
'Cause everyone else around is sleeping
The choice is up to you
Now you better watch out what you're saying
These words could cut like swords
You better watch out while you're praying
Find out what you're praying for
People tell you what they know
They're mostly wrong from the word go
'Cause it's under the surface
And it's up in the sky
That's why you won't reach it
So don't even try
It's so unexpected, now how could it be true?
I never would detect it if it hadn't been for you
Now I got this notion and it's bottled up inside
A swamp of emotions there's no need to hide
It's under the surface
And it's up in the sky
That's why you won't reach it
So don't even try
You could travel for a lifetime And still stay where you are You could wait until the right time Resolve to make or mar People tell you what they know They're mostly wrong from the word go It's under the surface And it's up in the sky That's why you won't reach it So don't even try The lines are old yet still not weakened You don't know what to do 'Cause everyone else around is sleeping The choice is up to you Now you better watch out what you're saying These words could cut like swords You better watch out while you're praying Find out what you're praying for People tell you what they know They're mostly wrong from the word go 'Cause it's under the surface And it's up in the sky That's why you won't reach it So don't even try It's so unexpected, now how could it be true? I never would detect it if it hadn't been for you Now I got this notion and it's bottled up inside A swamp of emotions there's no need to hide It's under the surface And it's up in the sky That's why you won't reach it So don't even try Explain Request ×
