Revelation of the Year

Lyrics

We are not so different, you and I
 no matter what we think
 we're kicking against the traces, bludgeoning
 trying to make it sink
 We're stepping into the unknown
 peeling layers of the onion right down
 cuz that is part of my style to
 risk to be left with nothing
 in pursuit of chasing something
 out of hand
 I know, I know don't tell me
 I've been on this earth
 I know the moon like a friend
 I hear a tune or someone sing
 feel the beauty in them
 these words woman
 we have some children
 I got memories with you
 I wonder how it ends
 it's beautiful yes
 what we have chosen
 with love in our hands
 we have made this garden
 & I think I can ride
 although I'm not a horseman
 but I have a patient mind
 & it's open
 We don't want to walk into the gray
 solo rolling with no map in hand
 so we reach out for someone to grasp
 keep from sinking into the sand
 Pick it up now brother help another pick it up
 don't get stuck in the destruction looming near
 pick it up now brother help another pick it up
 this is the revelation of the year
 Picking up all the pieces here and there
 to see if one might fit
 spinning them around and sideways and up and down
 it kinda stings a bit
 Digging through all the ditches just unwinding all the stitches into thread
 then hang it out to dry so
 what was I expecting just collecting balls of lint up in my head?
 I know I know don't yell at me
 I know you're tired of the same routine
 you have that look on your face
 I think I know what it means
 out of sorts in a vast machine
 a worker bee up in the scene
 never will be the queen
 & yes sometimes you have to sting
 expose the schemes to unlock the dreams
 ignite quicker than the gasoline
 to mask everything again in a smokescreen
 We don't want to walk into the gray
 solo rolling with no map in hand
 so we reach out for someone to grasp
 keep from sinking into the sand
 Pick it up now brother help another pick it up
 don't get stuck in the destruction looming near
 pick it up now brother help another pick it up
 this is the revelation of the year
