I Know

(Album: Birdtalker - 2021)

I was told that if I wanted life, to believe
In the answers, not the questions I could conceive
But like a child falling back to no arms underneath
I dropped into the unrelenting world of in-between
Behind the questions there's a murmur echoing
A wordless sentence in between the lines

In my heart I know, I know

Everyone I know is in the fight of their life
And though a smile's on a face you can feel it in their eyes
In every victory and defeat and in all smothered dreams
In the baby bird that's eaten by the snake in its sleep
Is there a rhythm to the mystery deep?
A melody that's crying while she sings?

In my heart I know, I know
In my heart I know, I know

In the quiet there's a voice that beckons me
To listen to what I already know

In my heart I know, I know
In my heart I know, I know
In my heart I know, I know
