These clever phrases you made up
Made up and memorized
Memorized
And you pretend you're well-read
but everyone knows the truth
Knows the truth
Way too caught up in yourself
You run while the others walk
While the others talk
At your feet lies a pearl
The key to your everything
Your tragedy
When the preacher shuts his books
and speaks straight from his heart
You suddenly see all
Suddenly feel all
As the four winds get a hold
of every bone you own
You suddenly see her
Suddenly feel
