The Scale

You thought about your future And you didn't see a sign So you start to worry You pull yourself together Because you have always been a fighter But you never understood That everything's just giving and receiving There's no such thing as one way Just read the signs And if you think that you don't see them Turn on the lights Stretch out my arms and slowly walk A straight line from me to you Stretch out my arms and slowly walk A straight line from me to you You ask for liberation You the slave of condemnation What you give is what you get This is the song of clever sayings But believe me, some are true What goes around that comes around And what you give is what you get Stretch out my arms and slowly walk A straight line from me to you Stretch out my arms and slowly walk A straight line from me to you There's a scale that holds the world That holds the world together So let's try to keep in balance A constant giving and receiving There's no such thing as one way Just read the signs And if you think that you don't see them Turn on the lights, turn on the lights Turn on the lights, turn on the lights
