Bad in Good
I safe-keep my heart inside a small dog that lies on the table while I work
I put all my dreams inside a little rabbit who plays around the room
The feelings and thoughts that got stuck and blocked me have left me with not much to say
I put my memories inside a wee bird it must have flown away
Earlier in life I thought I missed out every time that I stayed in
Now I'm prisoner of these walls. Like a river, time flows outside my flat and it's ok
I spend half my time trying to understand the human mind to see
if I figure out how most dwell so poorly in our shared reality
Cause all it takes is a lie and lies are free
I wish for you to have some friend where the slander kicks in that will stand up for you and defend your humanity
and question one single sided way to see
You can lie to others and yourself creatively
A toxic filter spreads like wild fire when curiosity runs dry
all it takes is a glance, who's disrespected by a few
and the scapegoat comes to view
You forgive what you love but reject what you don't
and you think you know exactly why
You see the good in your bad when you're aware of your reasons and cruelty is justified
you see the good in your bad when you're aware of your reasons and cruelty is out of sight
Cause all it takes is a lie and lies are free
I wish for you to have some friend where the slander kicks in that will stand up for you and defend your humanity
and question one single sided way to see
You can lie to others and yourself creatively
So I safe keep my heart inside a small dog that lies on the table while I work
I put all my dreams inside a little rabbit who plays around the room
The feelings and thoughts that got stuck and blocked me have left me with not much to say
I put my memories inside a wee bird it must have flown away
