Your eyes are open,
Green as the tepid sea,
Your heart beats soundly,
But it don't beat free,
You can't be told,
No you can't be shown,
You're so independent,
Gotta learn on your own.
I can't show you,
But I can know you,
I can't show you,
But I can hope you,
See
If it's true what they say,
That seeing is believing,
Then it's true what I say,
That I just can't be leaving.
You can be shown,
But you can't let it show,
You can be told,
But you can't let it show.
You see
Strong and Independent,
To almost a fault,
Weak and Independent,
Soul like a vault.
You can lean on,
But can't stay too long,
You can lean on,
But your pride is too strong
You'll see
You can self destruct,
Clear a path to nothing,
Blow it all up,
Hope whats left there is something,
You can move on,
But you can't move away,
You can move on,
But for some reason you stay.
You see
Fiercely prideful,
Compromise can lack,
Fiercely stoic,
With a wall against your back,
You can fight on,
But there's nothing to fight,
You can fight on,
In the end I hope you might,
See
Trust
