Things Change



How will you ever learn
When your hands are tied and your bridges burn
When will you get to see
That the only option lies with me

Must you be
Kicked right down, ripped from limb
Taught to drown but told to swim
The way to be, the way to act is
Not to preach what you practice

Things change
But a pattern is present
A formula remains
Things needn't be so if you let me through

How will you ever learn
When your hands are tied and your bridges burn
When will you get to see
That the only option lies with me

Must you be
Kicked right down, ripped from limb
Taught to drown but told to swim
The way to be, the way to act is
Not to preach what you practice

Things change
But a pattern is present
A formula remains
Things needn't be so if you let me through

It must be true
she said "I found you"

How will you ever learn
When your hands are tied and your bridges burn
When will you get to see
That your only option lies with me

Must you be
Kicked right down, ripped from limb
Taught to drown but told to swim
The way to be, the way to act is...

Who knows?
Who cares?
