Sometimes I wish we could say what we mean
Instead of binding our hands and trying to swim up stream
Then the way could be easy
And the road wouldn't seem so rough
You could say you had reason
Oh, and that would be enough
Sometimes the lights will play tricks with your eyes
Casting shadows more than twice the size
Makes the night seem so scary
Makes the road seem so rough
Carry all you can carry
Oh, and that should be enough
But all across the evening
We could feel it in our bones
Something sent you reeling
Through the realm of things unknown
It's just the weight of all the things
You call your own
Sometimes I wish we could just understand
Instead of testing the water
Or trying for the upper hand
But the words have been spoken
And I always say too much
Leaves you whole, but heart-broken
Because it never is enough
Night fell while we were still trying
To make sense of it all
No one seemed to recognize
The shadows on the wall
Were just our own
And we were only half as tall
