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
