when you judge another be sure to ask yrself why
do you see yr insecurities inside of yr friends eyes?
does it hurt yrself to feel like you could be just like them?
maybe you won't notice because you just won't let yourself in
when you look around please notice we're all made of the same stuff
and letting your emotions flow makes you soft and very tough
so whether you spend your days crying or lost in meditation
please find comfort in the knowing its all a divine orchestration
if you're gone forever i'll really miss you
if you're gone forever i will still think of you
if you're gone forever i'll really miss you
if you're gone forever i don't know what i'll do
don't know what i'll do
when you face the undesireable wrap your arms around yourself
lift your feet out of the casket, kiss your pain until it helps
if this strategy won't work for you, we'll help you keep on trying
we can stretch our hands out far enough for you to float up, flying
we could see ourselves as fragments, as slivers of the trees
as the yarn inside the carpet, as the blood between my teeth
but i'll expand my awareness, knowing i am all and nothing
sitting on the clouds of heaven, being understood and trusting
if you're gone forever, i'll understand you
if you're gone forever, i'll be compassionate to you
if you're gone forever, i'll really miss you
if you're gone forever, i'll know just what to do
i'll know just what to do
i'll dissolve into glitter, i'll explode into a star
i'll paint the talons of an eagle, i'll keep sleeping in the car
i'll pull oxygen into muscles and life into my bones
i'll keep yelling out my story into all these microphones
the moral of the story is its all down to perspective
comprehension of reality for each person is subjective
there's no good and bad to judge upon and that's how the story ends
we've got love, internal guidance, and we always have our friends
