I've seen you passing by, and I heard you without words; like I've met you in another life, and I felt you in my heart
We understood just as it was
A loud silence woke me from a dream, I'm trying to make it back to you
To give you all the things you'll ever need, if I could know that you would help me too
It's not what you say, it's what you do
When I go outside not dreaming now, I see so many people alone
Waiting for the sky to fall and chasing storms, hoping that it rains silver and gold, silver and gold
So they can make it through another day feeling high and tall, isn't that what they want
Until the law men come to find them and hang m' upside down, take every dime, prove them dead wrong
Is the real problem that we can't think for ourselves
Till' you let that bring you down so many times, it breaks your heart
It hangs you to dry, till' you're someone else, preoccupied
Will you take that all away, and give yourself the things you need
It's not given to you, this vision that you seek, only grows with patience.
Let that carry you, and you set you free
And I'll try to do the same, from this moment on
Those old habits have no place, and they're tearing us apart, pulling us away
