Water in the Creek

歌詞

I clung to a blindfold and a book I couldn't think, I couldn't look A car careening off the road I spoke like a riddle, in a dream My heart was pumping gasoline I still was sleeping when I woke My head, ran away, and then my heart The whole caboodle fell apart I didn't notice I was gone But now, there is music, there is light There is laughter, there is sight I am new, and I am strong Free me, scrub away my calloused thoughts, release me Clean me, there's water in the creek And I will wash away my sad defeats and start, this all anew I thought I knew it all before My cup was spilling on the floor I had to pour it down the drain Now I can fill it up anew With something real, with something true I'm standing naked in the rain Free me, scrub away my calloused thoughts, release me Clean me, there's water in the creek And I will wash away my sad defeats and start, this all anew The beginner's mind will see That there's a forest for the trees And that we're smaller than the sum of who we are With a whisper or a shout The voice will shake you in and out And leave you empty as a midnight boulevard Free me, scrub away my calloused thoughts, release me Clean me, there's water in the creek And I will wash away my sad defeats and start, this all anew
