Slip and slide
Those things that you believed in
All the things you told yourself you needed
Were so misleading
This is the life
A moment captured
Freezed then
Simplicity is what you see, enough for me
I’m breathing
Take another, take another look
At what you leave on, what you leave on show
Tell only the, tell only the truth
That’s all you need to, all you need to know
Nina , Aretha, Etta, Mary ,Dusty, Leonard, Bob, Neil n still you won't trust me
Read the last pages of the book to get the picture
Got no illustrations, but still get to kiss her
Be sure to lick your finger flicking through the pages
No vivid image not seen you for ages
It's kinda funny that we never really sorted it
Stuck on repeat well guess I just ignored it
Big drift, like school geeks and cool kids
Trampled on the roses but stole your desert orchids
I know I'm not supposed to, you're not opposed too
But if the road stops we can just go through
The glass is half empty, with a big crack down the side
It begs the question, did we really ever die
The numbers on my phone but no money for the credit though
Stumbling on Rolling Stones, let's forget yo
I’ll take my time
To note down all that I've found
New beliefs, realities, and with my feet on the ground
Let myself, shine
With facets bright and clear now
No longer dampened down or hampered
I won’t allow
Take another, take another look
At what you leave on, what you leave on show
Tell only the, tell only the truth
That’s all you need to, all you need to know
