Looking into a life created A simple thing, yet so complicated One step forward, two step back Mouse on a wheel in a big mouse trap The pitter patter of repeated patterns Positive, yet you're so uncertain A line is drawn, a line is crossed Slipping up on the under frost The balance of fear and love Keeps a good man in line The skin gets thicker, seizes up Glimpsing his years in an empty cup The balance of fear and love Makes a good girl in time Shaping the world with a wilted wand Awaiting the day when the wind may take her Off her feet Everyone wants someone to follow To turn another grey day to yellow
If trust breaks like a lightening bolt It takes a test to be fixing faults I've heard words fly on electric currents A look in the eye like an unborn torrent Does it take a trophy to turn a page And pa** through life as a jilted sage The balance of fear and love Keeps a good man in line The skin gets thicker, seizes up Glimpsing his years in an empty cup The balance of fear and love Makes a good girl in time Shaping the world with a wilted wand Awaiting the day when the wind may take her Off her feet (Oh, Let it rain in hell, let it rain in hell)
