Jist

Climbing to the top now
On a search for cleaner air
Never making sense now
Always think I'm nearly there
Thought you hadn't noticed
But we're running out of time
Falling by the wayside
There's a drop on every side
I just can't get the jist of it

Letting go completely
Giving up the fight
Telling all who ask you
It's gonna be alright
You do it all for justice
You do it all for love
Still you just can't get the jist of it
Just can't get the jist of it

If somebody called you
Woke you up in the middle of the night
Would you lead them, or would you follow
Be one of those that runs in circles
Chasing tails, hunting shadows in the night
I just can't get the jist of it
Just can't get the jist of it
