From the recording Keep It Simple
Lyrics
Of everything I am
And what I do
And where I stand
And everything that I've worked so hard to be
I'm finding day to day
My heart keeps getting in the way
And making all the tough dicisions for me
But recently it seems
That I have fallen on my knees
Because my head and soul
Are playing different teams
And just when I begin to think
I'm further out than in
I see my life's the opposite of what it seems
I wanna give my heart the weekend off
And put it on a train
For a little time to just unwind
Stop feeling so insane
Just a couple days of silence
Just a couple hours or rest
Two days to stop believing
That my heart knows best
I find that where I live
It feels much easier to give
But with my giving comes
A feeling of distress
My heart pretends to gleam
And keep things organized and clean
But in reality it loves to make a mess
I wanna give my heart the weekend off
And put it on a train
For a little time to just unwind
Stop feeling so insane
Just a couple days of silence
Just a couple hours or rest
Two days to stop believing
That my heart knows best
So I want it just to go away
Even for two days
So I can clean up all the damage that it's made
And maybe when it comes again
To the space that it's been living in
It'll feel so good I'll make it have to stay
...
