Lyrics

you and me of the 10, 000 wars
 dividing life into factions of pleasure and chores
 a bed to be made and a bed to lie in
 a hand in the darker side
 and our sights set on zion
 the heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child
 put my life in a box and let my imagination run wild
 pour the cement for my feet
 the heart and the mind on a parallel course
 never the two shall meet
 and oh the dissatisfied with the satisfied
 everybody loves a melodrama and the scandal of a lie
 still you held your arms open
 for the prodigal daughter
 I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes
 still waters
 try making one and one make one
 twist the shapes until everything comes undone
 watch the wizard behind the curtain
 the larger than life and the power of seeming certain
 the evil ego and the vice of pride
 is there ever anything else that makes us take our different sides
 I wanted everything to feed me
 about as full as I got was of myself
 and the upper echalons of mediocrity
 and oh the dissatisfied with the satisfied
 everybody loves a melodrama and the scandal of a lie
 still you held your arms open
 for the prodigal daughter
 I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes
 still waters
 still waters
 after the battles and we're still around
 everything once up in the air has settled down
 sweep the ashes let the silence find us
 a moment of peace is worth every war behind us
 you and me of the 10, 000 wars
