[Verse 1] Confusion sets in and is holding me tight This silence is as cold as this winter night I'm not looking for answers, just picking a fight Not pulling my punches this time Delusion walks up and sits down for a while Says, "Son you'll make it through this if you just wave and smile You can fool the whole world for a while All that you'll lose is your mind" [Chorus] And so help me, I'm gonna find Clarity I've been chasing her down on my knees She's always running Slipping through my hands like a dream Leaves me like a book with no theme I'll be waiting for you to come back to me Clarity [Verse 2] I'm walking the streets past the old promenade I smell whiskey and cigarettes, identity fraud People on the corner all trying to play God Over all the bu*terflies I feel disconnected from the rest of the world I see an old woman with hair white as a pearl I see thousands of people but I don't see my girl
I need her to open my eyes [Chorus] And so help me, I'm gonna find Clarity Been chasing her down on my knees She's always running Slipping through my hands like a dream Leaves me like a book with no theme I'll be waiting for you to come back to me Clarity [Verse 3] As I drive in my car, I'm between here and there Just my life, I'm so well-aware This freeway's as empty as the open air I'm waiting for the sun My mind is at home but both eyes on the road My shoulders are carrying a heavy load I wish someone would tell me which was I should go 'Cause all the signs bleed into one [Chorus] And so help me, I'm gonna find Clarity I've been chasing her down on my knees She's always running Slipping through my hands like a dream She's a song that I can never sing I'll be waiting for you to come back to me Clarity
