In all this noise
The smallest voice lies in wait
For the listener breaks through the roar
A world on fire
The factions vie for attention
Your self-imposed pressure absorbs your mind

Close your eyes
Let it find you, the stillness inside

Too many tales untold
Life placed on hold
While the author is lost looking for a safe bet
But none can know
Where this goes
The illusion of past and of future besets your mind

Close your eyes
Let it find you, the nowness inside

Baby you don’t have to know the outcome
To know that you’re headed in the right direction
You are a compass pointing north
And this way is only yours

You already have the answer in you
It’s the bell that’s ringing on the plain truth
Listen and keep listening
Listen and keep listening
