Muddy Water

"I wonder how these little minds Can conceive of god when they confine him To one spec of dust in the universe?" Muddy water like a piece of ancient church glass flowing We're on the darkest stretch, but the bend ahead is glowing Float past the trees, bent by the breeze Toward the lost, the always existing Behind the wall, not quite showing Above the muddy water Staring from the banks are the old lies I've been throwing Yeah, a lie is still a lie, while the brightest minds are blowing One day I'll see all of the eyes Of the ones who swore that I won't die alone I won't cry when I'm going Know my name Swear that I Made my noise Paid the debt I'm owing To the muddy water Would you take me in this peculiar way I'm showing What's left of the mind after love, silence, and home? One day I'll be joined to the breeze with the lost The always existing, behind the wall, always knowing What's beyond the muddy water (muddy water) Muddy water (muddy water)
