Human Party Trick

(album: Inviting Light - 2017)

I did do those things on purpose. I'm an expert in my field.
I'll pull out my pockets perfect. Other tricks up my sleeve still.

Are you treading water gently? Or are you the current still?
Just stand and smile politely and internalize the thrill.

Yeah did I make you some promise? To be bound to struggle still?
To a decade lived dishonest where at least the feeling's real.
I think, I hope it's real.

So come on, let's hang up all the moments that get in the way.
Where you feel like you're a human party trick to entertain.

Yeah did I make you some promise? To be bound to struggle still?
To a decade lived dishonest where at least the feeling's real.
I think, I hope it's real.

Yeah did I make you some promise? To be bound to struggle still?
To a decade lived dishonest where at least the feeling's real.
Yeah so now that I'm the artist I can paint the picture pale.
I can twist my words, the overture to finally feel what's real.
I think, I hope it's real.
