Falling Star

I can't ever stand knowing
I can't keep my eyes on the sky
Keep my mind on the prize

And now that I can see
And I'm free to believe
In just what I gotta be
Just take a breath of this life
Face up and match the dream
Reflections in the sky like a mirror
Ain't sure what it's asking me
I can't ever stand knowing

It all comes falling back to me
Over and over just like a falling star
No time for complacence it's over
No telling what you are
Driven and beyond all the limits
But it all goes way to far
Fortunes of the past can't last
But it makes you wander far

But it makes you wonder who you are
But it makes you wonder where you are
Who you are why you are
And just how far that you would go
Before you blow its no joke
When emotions cannot slow

I can't ever stand knowing
I can't keep my eyes on the sky
Keep my mind on the prize

It's out of sight but it's around
Shoots like a crack through the pressure
Of time as its around
Keeping the earth always shaking
Movement of the underground
Like a tectonic plate counterweight
Measurements of what's been found
I can't ever stand knowing

There's no time to deny all the fallacies
Of the world at hand
A challenge by commitment to truth
To understand
The lines that run the deepest like roots
Bloods hidden hand
Sends tremors through the heart of the earth
Watch out where you stand
Better watch out where you stand
Better watch out for what you demand
Or what your eyes find

You better watch the skies
Before you wind up where you hide
Watch for the skies
With your open eyes and your open mind
Don't distract from the time
That it takes when your looking deep inside
Like a flash in the sky a burning question
Always wondering why anyone carries on
Without ever even knowing why

Why try to impress or address
What's best is no stress
And if you've ever given into doubt
Don't shout and don't bow
Don't think less
Express ingest arrest confess offense
A little eye in the sky
To keep your mind on the prize
And to make your best bets
Falling star
I can't ever stand knowing
