Not What You See

Words Only

It's dead again

Nothing happening out there

For a while things were looking good

For a while I was understood

Looked like things were about to change

But alas, everything died again


Lord I'm weary of struggling

Trying to swim but I sink again 

Will my life always be like this?

Will there always be pain 


It's not what you see with your eyes

But what you see with your heart

Consider what burns deep within

And remember the visions you've seen


For that passion that lies hidden there

Will keep you away from despair

And the visions that burn in your mind

With all of the plans that you find

Will help you press on and succeed

With Chords

It's dead again

Nothing happening out there

For a while things were looking good

For a while I was understood

Looked like things were about to change

But alas, everything died again


Lord I'm weary of struggling

Trying to swim but I sink again 

Will my life always be like this?

Will there always be pain 


It's not what you see with your eyes

But what you see with your heart

Consider what burns deep within

And remember the visions you've seen


For that passion that lies hidden there

Will keep you away from despair

And the visions that burn in your mind

With all of the plans that you find

Will help you press on and succeed
