With nature's call around You talk about frights In the verse of every song You tell me what's wrong But what's right? You're seeing creation That crushing never-ending change is so full of love And so you're waking to face the change in your role And with each restless shiver you wretch from your soul You're asking "oh, is that something I'm not anymore? A brother to shake these broken chords till they turn gold?" And I tried To survive without that gold And wondering why Our exchange can never hold Am I what's wrong? Well what's right? Stop trusting in demons You're scattered, ever-lonely, buddy, but so full of love Please stop repeating your terror You choose what you see It's always "what if?" and "why not?" Man, you gotta just be Simplify, define your goals And watch them grow Be your own true self The you that I know Days gone As I peer past the edge of what's lost I'm starting to cry But the rain's fine And the tears feel warm and my body is humming alive In time You'll revive what you thought dead You've stopped your own climb On the verge of every end You tell me what's wrong But what's right? Stop believing your being's been shattered and distorted 'cause brother you're so full of love And so you're hoping to make a change in your role Repeating mantras to find some ground for your soul Stop asking "oh, is that something I'm not anymore? A brother to shake these broken chords 'til they turn gold?" </lyrics>
