[Verse 1]
Do you care to know what is inside of me
When my secrets are mine, my own
Is a heart filled with fear
Such a sickening burden
A crippling burden to bear
[Verse 2]
I heard what was said, whether right or wrong
I measured each whisper that leapt from your tongue
Though it sounded like shouting to my head and to my heart
I was too busy moving to care
[Chorus]
But if there's a light shining, point the way there
Straight way of walking, I'll be like a narrow
If there's a line I'm crossing
I'll try to be better (try to be better for me)
[Verse 3]
Soil or brackish water
Thorn and the vine
To be callous or warm
Or both honest and human
I'll become the fake flower
The sickeningly sweet wine
The smile that never touches the eyes
[Chorus]
But if there's a light shining, point the way there
Straight way of walking, I'll be like a narrow
If there's a line I'm crossing
I'll try to be better
For the light shining, point the way there
Straight way of walking, I'll be like a narrow
If there's a line I'm crossing
I'll try to be better (try to be better for me)
