granted

sometimes i forget that we're not all one
that things aren't harmless just because they're done in fun
so i offer up my apologies
like sweeping the street.
not like it was never dirty
but its better for your feet
the worst part of living to expect
is when it all comes crashing down
you don't know if you should be writing it all down or trying to forget
but all decisions, every last one of them
no matter what you think they're for
they all just lead us along,
like a puppet in the crazy light game of Yours

so i hope that life brings you happiness
i hope you live and learn
i hope that all the dreams you have
increase and burn

i want you to be satisfied
with the love that you got
you think you're so empty
if you'd look you'd see your not

and i hope that
the dreams that you have
increase and burn
and all the expectations and fears
can help you learn

that you're always satisfied beneath the sheath
just settle down a minute. just breathe
tired of the same old life you live
tired of the pain
i dedicate my life to suffering
maybe one day i'll learn there's nothing to explain

and just breathe.
just breathe and walk the path
the one that appears beneath my feet
the one that lasts
even when i think i'm only wandering

there are so many lessons that I think I repeat
i hope that i wake to find- my desires are increased
so that one one day just maybe i can burst out of my sheath.

then i wake another morning
the same things to conquer, or at least so i think
what if i woke one day to say
maybe i just need a drink of water
a moment to reflect
all those worried moments they're
so hard to recollect
i think i'll just start walking
and see where i get
i've got a burning desire
and i'll never forget the way is beneath my feet
yeah, the way is beneath my feet
now days pile upon days
and years upon years
battle after battle fought
with laughter not tears
the world is an easy place
for those who won't forget that
its all just lucid dreaming
what you really want you get
so i hope that your desires
increase and burn
i hope that everything you do
will help you learn
now i'm getting a little tired,
i think its time for bed
i got more to do tomorrow so
i will take my rest
goodnight
