Sometimes True to Nothing

You're not the only one
Who thinks they're the only one
To feel this numb, in spite of the
Distance you've come

Light comes in through the eyes
(It's) something that you recognize
But you've ignored, 'cause nobody
Told you what to ask for

The heart is a wilderness
With beauty and emptiness
That you endure, 'cause you
Never can be sure

And it rolls and it tumbles forward
And it pushes the envelope
'Cause it's nowhere and everywhere
And it's breaking your heart to watch it

In case you're the only one
Nobody else's child
Stay here you're mine, there's gotta be
Something you can find here

It hurt so you took it out
You're gonna work it out
No invisible line could possibly define

And it's hiding up there in the corner
Like a child you're in need of protection
And it keeps you as long as you let it
And it holds you 'til it's all you are
And it pushes the envelope
'Til it freezes your need to reconnect
And you've grown to depend upon it
And it's breaking your heart to watch it go
