It’s so rare that you can’t replace it
So present that you can’t erase
It’s so dark that you cannot see it
So unlikely that you’ll ever be it
Envision what could be if you just let it
In visions you'll only live to regret it
If it only happens in your head
Better the you you know than the you you don’t
Better the words you speak than the words you’re told
Better to reason that it’s what you wanted all along
Better the you you know than the you you don’t
I was always taught to count my blessings
As the risk of failing or learning a lesson
Wouldn’t ever soothe a sensitive soul
So I just kept pretending
That its so high that I cannot reach it
So hard that I cannot teach it
It’s so fragile that I cannot touch it
So confronting that I cannot watch it
In visions I only live to regret it
Cause it only happens in my head
Better the you you know than the you you don’t
Better the words you speak than the words you’re told
Better to reason that it’s what you wanted all along
Better the you you know than the you you don’t
It’s so rare that I can’t replace it
So present that I can’t erase
It’s so dark that I cannot see it
So unlikely that I’ll ever be it
It’s so high that I cannot reach it
It’s so hard that I cannot teach it
It’s so fragile that I cannot touch it
So confronting that I cannot watch it
I like to pretend I have a really talented friend who recorded this album as a gift. That's what it feels like; a gift from a stupidly close friend. sherryking
