Written on the wall in front of me
In bright blue letters, it says,
"The truth will set you free."
But my sense is cloudy when I'm feeling low
And there's no light for truth to show.
Truth as a capital I can't spell it
Only as a lower-case can I tell it.
I say it not to say that it's not out there
When it shines, it shines, and I can barely bare my joy.
But search for answers you'll find questions.
Tell me what you're thinking if you speak the language,
Say it right and I just might get it.
Won't you hit me where I'm hollow -
It's deep down and if you play it like you mean it
I just might follow you.
Bring me to the music
Set me in a circle
Let me lay my guard down
Get me with my people.
Melody my love, the siren at the center
Generous and juicy,
Give me just a little bit more
Just a little bit more
A little bit more.
Sing me a song I can believe.
Sing me a song I can believe.
