Apply To Self Inflicted Wounds
Folder:
The Seasons Were Ours why can't you just get loose
of every little fear you know
look at where you're standing now
where you were four years ago
you haven't moved at all
towards the direction you want most to go
greatest desires equal greatest fears
but only applicable where applied
why can't you see yourself?
look around you, anything
familiar? what's got you clinging
to what gives you nothing to hold
you cannot have what you won't chance
you'll never ever know everything
and sooner or later you'll never know me
but only applicable where applied
thats what you should fear, if anything
but thats not a veiled threat, observation
you stare still at something in motion
too long and it passes you by
you stare still at something from the shore
on the ocean, its over the horizon
and goodbye
is not the last word i want to say
don't want to hold it on the tip of my tongue
don't want to keep it up in shackles
to the point i'm dropping anchor
why can't you let it hang loose
and see if i float
is it that you don't know how to swim
cept for what you've been told
is it negated if i suggest?
why don't you experience yourself?
look at yourself budding now
where you were budding four years ago
not to say you haven't grown
towards the direction you want most to go
growing some roots to stand upon
but browning in the shade of your doubt
come on out and bloom
these words are for you
but only applicable where applied
these words are for you
but only applicable where applied
only applicable when applied
why can't you just jump
without learning how to float
only applicable when applied
