I know where youâre going
And I see where youâve been
Patience is a virtue
And mine with you is wearing thin
Itâs easy to sit and wait
Speak with words youâve stolen
From better men than you
Doors they helped you open
In time will cease to let you through
Is it easy to stand and sigh?
Bid another friend goodbye
Lights can shine too bright, dear,
nobody can see
Hide safe behind your light, dear,
But understand it wonât blind me
And I know it would do no good,
But Iâd hurt you if I could
See my eyes,
Open wide,
Speak up now,
Or hold your peace forever and be done
Eyes down, door closed
Keep quiet, growing old
I know you, I see you
Cling to, the road you ride on
Homeless, more or less
Skin and bone, on your own
Iâll be alright, Iâm doing fine
Keep my tongue behind my
Teeth and, get gone
You never were anyone
Keep your words, keep your mind
Iâll keep my tongue behind my teeth
Tongue behind my teeth
And I know it would do no good,
But Iâd hurt you if I could
