Wisdom
I crossed the river of intentions to forget you
Two silver pieces paid to pass the great divide
I scaled a mountain of distraction to erase you
Tossed out the scattered pieces
Left them all behind
Tell me I'm dreaming
I've seen a ghost down in the nave
She knows I'm sleeping
Her slender hands and sullen gaze
Words are falling from her lips
And freeze behind a cold eclipse
The age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, where is mine?
Across the plains to California I went scheming
Into an ocean swept away along the tide
I tried to stay afloat while tumbling ever deeper
Nobody warned me there were sharks on every side
Tell me I'm dreaming
I heard a ghost call out my name
She knows my secrets
The sunken treasures, buried shame
I've seen her one then twice ten thousand times
Perhaps a sign the age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, where is mine?
I ran away to cities angry and defiant
A thousand faces couldn't strip you from my mind
I'm flush with poison but I hear you whisper quiet
All is forgiven I've been with you all this time
Tell me I'm dreaming
I know this girl in front of me
I'll tend to you more sweetly
Speak in kinder tones reminds me
Of all the time I had the whole world at my feet
And so the age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, is this mine?
Is this mine?
Two silver pieces paid to pass the great divide
I scaled a mountain of distraction to erase you
Tossed out the scattered pieces
Left them all behind
Tell me I'm dreaming
I've seen a ghost down in the nave
She knows I'm sleeping
Her slender hands and sullen gaze
Words are falling from her lips
And freeze behind a cold eclipse
The age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, where is mine?
Across the plains to California I went scheming
Into an ocean swept away along the tide
I tried to stay afloat while tumbling ever deeper
Nobody warned me there were sharks on every side
Tell me I'm dreaming
I heard a ghost call out my name
She knows my secrets
The sunken treasures, buried shame
I've seen her one then twice ten thousand times
Perhaps a sign the age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, where is mine?
I ran away to cities angry and defiant
A thousand faces couldn't strip you from my mind
I'm flush with poison but I hear you whisper quiet
All is forgiven I've been with you all this time
Tell me I'm dreaming
I know this girl in front of me
I'll tend to you more sweetly
Speak in kinder tones reminds me
Of all the time I had the whole world at my feet
And so the age of wisdom has arrived
So tell me, is this mine?
Is this mine?
