lyrics

I was fourteen when prophecy came to me
in a waterfall, the love of my father
was all that I ever wanted
and so haunted by his ghost
I made the most of my days
trying to live up
but it seems
nothing is good enough for a god
or at least I thought
projections of how I ought to be
and so
caught me a case of expectation
self-generated frustration
as I sat the bench
sat the pew
dribbled till I grew tall enough to see
into my father’s eyes
well son
look inside
and realize
it’s my own two
it’s my own two
it’s my own two eyes
one is you
one is I
one is truth
and one is lie
so decide
so deside
so we decide

And in those days I was divided
between church and state
tournament dreams
fell to a knee twisted and torn
a dream died and born
and out of the ashes came the music
I heard Her calling in the music
and so I choose it
everyday to carry this pain
as I strain to see
it’s my own two
it’s my own two
it’s my own two eyes
one is truth
one is lie
one is you
one is I
so deside
so decide

I will decide

And with my choice
I’ll choose my voice
to sing for Love
to sing for Love
to sing for Love
to sing for Love.

Music’s how I get high
Music’s how I get high
Music’s how I get high
Music’s how I get high
Music’s how I get by
Music’s how we get by
Music’s how we get by
