Advice for the Pure at Heart
There's always some shadow character
trying to tell me who I am
one moment I'm a predator
then I'm a sacrificial lamb
I'm not wrong about this
it's plainer than the sun
we tap the abyss
then we let it run
tap the abyss and let it run
If there's a hand to deal, deal it
if there's a deal to seal, seal it
if there's a layer to peel, go ahead and peel it
and if there's pain to feel, feel it
Life returns to semi normal
it's never more normal than that
write your dreams in your journal
and keep 'em under your hat
if it's not as effortless as you wish
you'll have to make an effort, son
empty your glass and clean your dish
it's the same for anyone
If there's a hand to deal, deal it
if there's a deal to seal, seal it
if there's a layer to peel, go ahead and peel it
and if there's pain to feel, feel it

How do you learn to relax
trust yourself to see the facts
you're too easily discouraged, love
it's true below and up above
you're on your way so
it's alright to say so
If there's a hand to deal, deal it
if there's a deal to seal, seal it
if there's a layer to peel, go ahead and peel it
and if there's this to feel, feel it
There's always some shadow character
trying to tell you who you are
who'll talk you into a corner
won't let you venture far
I'm not wrong about this
it's plainer than the sun
we tap the abyss
then we let it run
tap the abyss and let it run
tap the abyss and let it run |
