Magician's Best Trick |
Take me back, I won’t do it again |
«Nothing has an end,» Parmenides once said |
So forget what was once fallible and written in lead |
Forget me not if today is all we have left |
Tomorrow is a magician’s best trick |
Put your yesterdays back into that pretty head |
Take me back, teach me how to change |
You can’t mold me, you can’t shape me |
You can’t fit me into your little frame |
Know your soil before it rains |
I suppose no one is really to blame |
For this endless and recycled shame |
Take me back, but keep your expectations low |
Don’t you give to receive |
It’ll leave you ample with greed |
And when you look at your reflection don’t you try to find me |
Judge not the colors but the whole painting |
Don’t go searching for the bad that could be |
'Cause you will find it comes subconsciously |
Take me back, but take me how I come |
My slate it ain’t clean, but I will not forget where I came from |
So don’t tell me how to do things when that’s always how they’ve been done |
I’ve always taken the road less traveled on |
So you can meet me here when you’ve moved on |
But you can’t have me how you want |
The truth is you can’t have me at all |
