There's a question haunting me
What would I deserve to be
But for all I've lost forgotten and ignored
An imposter where I am
I neglected all you gave
What should I have seen
As I watched for fires to finally burn
I don't know
And my hope
Is that you know the same as me
I've been spending all my days
Counting hours I've thrown away
Waiting til the time is right
To search for all that I've misplaced
As though time can just return
If I only just pretend
That it helps to be too wise to think
I'm wise enough to speak
I don't know
And my hope
Is that you know the same as me
But I'll wait and I'll trust
Your readying water for when the oil's ablaze
I'm asking forgiveness for all that I am
Trying to decipher what's out of my hands
Silence
What gives me the right to reveal what I know
When there's no explanation for all that I don't
Silence
You see there's a lion asleep his cage
You think that it's enough to just open the gate
Silence
Smoke won't wake my brain
Some things I can't change
Someone wake my brain
Someone feed me flames
