I could speak to god, but the sky is empty,
this eye knows, this eye knows.
I could swim in the lake, but nothing is clear,
this eye knows, this eye knows.
I could climb the trees, but what awaits me at the top?
Shaky ground and cold breeze, sweet blessed relief.
The end of the puzzle brings boredom- a strange sort of grief.
This eye knows what this eye knows.
You can bring joy, but you have to have the guts,
this I know, this I know, this I know.
You can pump love far, but your heart must force it,
this I know, this I know, this I know.
You can create heavens, but can you control the brain?
it takes everything in, so easy to pin
everything down to the environment that it sways in.
This I know.
