Free and Insecure
The fireworks end and we go to bed with a metric ton of dissonance in our heads
We lay ourselves down and we fall asleep, hoping our aversion somehow meets our needs
We're so afraid
So open up all the doors and start laying down all your arms
You might finally be free and insecure
Open up both your hands and stop making such war with them
You might finally make peace with where you are
The truth of it is we're afraid to be quiet as the weight of mystery presses in on us
But there's some things you and I are just not meant to know
Can we just stop to wonder that we're even here at all?
I'm wise enough to know that I'm young, but I know that there's a war in us
and the only way we're going to make peace is to give up
Cuz we're trying so hard to believe that being strong will make us free
when the only thing we really need is a little honesty
We lay ourselves down and we fall asleep, hoping our aversion somehow meets our needs
We're so afraid
So open up all the doors and start laying down all your arms
You might finally be free and insecure
Open up both your hands and stop making such war with them
You might finally make peace with where you are
The truth of it is we're afraid to be quiet as the weight of mystery presses in on us
But there's some things you and I are just not meant to know
Can we just stop to wonder that we're even here at all?
I'm wise enough to know that I'm young, but I know that there's a war in us
and the only way we're going to make peace is to give up
Cuz we're trying so hard to believe that being strong will make us free
when the only thing we really need is a little honesty
