You hide behind this mask
So innocently
You wrestle with this task
Of bitter uncertainty
You're asking, "Why, why, why,
Can't I see the blue sky?"
And still the years pass you by
Without a word said
Without a word said

So confidently I can hear your voice
So evidently calling out to me
I will not fear the sting of expectations now

I will not disquise
This open flame in open skies
Are you asking for your own demise
By letting the years pass you by
Like clouds up in the sky, by and by
The years will surely pass you by
Without a word said

What's happened to this gift
Of cleansing white light
The world's gone adrift
By basking in the night
Will you be a leader or
A single ignorant follower
And let the years pass you by
Without a word said
Without a word said
