Bartomelo and the Buzzing of Bees

I know I’ve been distant
But I feel a change coming on I know I’ve been resistant
But I feel a change, way too strong
You’ve fought all their wars and
You’ve worked for every boss
You’ve traveled over country and
You’ve been home and you’ve been lost
I know I’ve been distant
But I feel a change we’ve been waiting on I know I’ve been resistant
But I feel a change, way too strong
You’ve paid and you’ve been paid but
At what pains, just to belong?
You’ve played, but have you been played by This game all along?
I know I’ve been distant
But I feel a change coming on I know I’ve been resistant
But I feel a change, way too strong
Arguments, questions, our struggles and lessons
But do you feel smiled on by your past and present?
I still believe in the futures unwritten, living and dying like a damned human
being
Believe in the buzzing of bees around me and we’ll get on What pain has been nagging on Our brains and turning us wrong?
What weight has been dragging on Our train for oh so long?
See, I’ve broken down the doors and found
Naught but dust and stones for our graves
We’ve spoken around it all, but now
I trust we can carry the day
I know I’ve been missing
But I feel a change coming on I know I’ve been resistant
But I feel a change, way too strong
I know I’ve been distant
But I feel a change coming on I know I’ve been resistant
But I feel the change we’ve been waiting on
