Begin the day by speaking to you
You are everywhere I can't seem to escape it
Open a book and read about you
Step outside, and find you there too
Try to grasp what you know
But find myself falling
When I begin to think I finally understand
You blow my mind again
At the end of the day I find my self saying
“I wish I understood you”
How can I know you and yet know nothing at all?
Next day all I know, I left you behind.
The book I had read the day before
Is lying closed by my bedroom door
Step outside again, and all I see
Is how the things around relate to me
At the end of this day
I find myself empty and alone
The emptiness inside of me
I listen and inside my head
And thousands of voices drone
Open my door and crash on the bed
Ignoring the ache inside of me
I turn to my door and gaze
Pierced by what I look and see
The book I read is lying there
It hasn’t moved yet seems to stare
Pick it up and begin to read
Inside my heart you’ve planted a seed
Ending the day by speaking to you
You are everywhere I can't seem to escape it
Open the book and read about you
Step outside, and find you there too
Try to grasp what you know
But find myself falling
When I begin to think I finally understand
You blow my mind again
At the end of this day I find my self saying
“I wish I understood you”
