Wiser Too

(album: Dressing Like A Stranger - 2022)

Every bird
And every stone
I'd give up half a lifetime just to have you home
It's hard to see
What's hard to solve
I been wearing masks since I was five years old

Every voice
Can sound the same
Until you stop and listen to how each voice can break
Some will crack, while others fade
I guess I'm trying to find a clever way to say

Someone's gonna break your heart
And I'll be standing where you are
I hope we'll all be stronger soon
Maybe wiser too

Were you there?
Did you see?
The ground beneath was spinning like a falling leaf
I feel alone
In crowded streets
I wish I could believe what everyone believes

Someone's gonna stop your start
But everyone's been where you are
I hope we'll all be safer soon
Maybe wiser too

I know the chance of getting struck's unlikely
No one's gonna take my mind off lightning
How'd I know the sun won't just stop rising

Someone's gonna break your heart
But I'll be standing where you are
I hope we'll all be stronger soon
Maybe wiser too
