Why do I sing my song for you when I know if I don't I'll still leave with you

Looking down at my drink, its residue

Do stains tell the truth?

Where there are shadows, there is light

Well, the heaviness falls like the snow in night

Waking up to the quiet and blinding white

Can't this be enough?

The way you play gets caught in my teeth

As if the six brass strings were feeding me

And the notes that I sing, fruit on a tree

Won't you just pick me?

I get into my car to get out of the house

And the radio's on as I ride it out

Well the dashboard's a gong as the wheels turn ground

Doesn't that count?

I can be crazy too

Willing disaster to breakthrough

Tornado's close in the rearview

Not all mirrors tell the truth

Not all mirrors tell the truth

When the double helix gets too tight for you

When you're lost in the syntax, no dawn, no dew

I'm the broken glass in the sole of your shoe

I'm walking me home with you

The sweat drips down there's salt in my mouth

When I jump in the lake, I let it pull me down

Do I have what it takes to spit myself back out?

Please let me be enough

Why do I sing out loud?

As if by reaching you, I could move the clouds

As if by moving clouds, I could reach myself

I guess the truth has to be enough Or Else

I guess the truth has to be enough O Else
