It Could Be Me

Can you speak my secret name and fix me\nI have no heart, I have no brain\nLord, I have no courage\nCan you get me home again?\nCould never be heaven without you\nI was drowning in the lake dammed over a dead mining town\nThe cars and the homes lay still in the water\nThe deeper I sank, the less I died\nThe trees swayed slowing the tide\nThere were people I love below me singing\nAnd all of the songs were about you\nWill is well rehearsed swimming circles in the church\nA cardinal fair says «God is dead»\nWill says\nGet out of my head\nYou are not alone\nWe are not separate\nMy daughter’s shoulders on my shoulders\nMy sons hands my hands\nMy wife’s heart my own heart\nI’ve heard the outer darkness is really nice this time of year\nCould never be heaven without you\n'Cause so many of the things you do, you’ve been conditioned to believe them.\nAnd then if you try and break away from your conditioning, try to be something\nof an individual… then at least in our generation right now you think «Well,\nam I doing it because I really want to be different, am I doing it because\nthere’s such an emphasis placed (I miss you) don’t know how to break through\nthis contradictory mess, and really find your own authentic individuality.
