Everyone says there’s nothing there
You smile like you know about a treasure
It’s easy to trust you when you dare
To go beyond all measure
In the swamp of dreams
You’re at ease
With ordinary walk of life
But by far
Your guiding star
Is the furthest from the strife
And you go right through
Wish I could see like you
With every picture that you improve
Like you’ve got nothing to prove
And I’ve never been
As far from Armageddon
As I’ve been with you.
Everyone points a way to choose
But your eyes have caught a vision
You jump right off and wet your shoes
You don’t mind you’re on a mission
In the swamp of dreams
You climb the trees
You’re reaching for a different viewpoint
Sometimes you find
The right kind
Like you’re walking the land that you anoint
And you go right through
Wish I could see like you
With every picture that you improve
Like you’ve got nothing to prove
And I’ve never been
As far from Armageddon
As I’ve been with you.
Do you see any shadows that you long to meet?
Are you immune to the fright?
If There’s a voice in the dark, will you let it speak,
Until its drawn to the light?
Can you conquer the hopelessness on plain sight?
I just think that you might.
And I’ve never been
As far from Armageddon
As I’ve been with you.
