lyrics

Digging
For meanings
Digging
For truth

There comes a minute in time
There comes a moment in time
There comes this unpleasant time
When you feel so confused

Your tools
Are blunt
Shovels and picks
Are blunt

You suddenly don’t know what is right
You suddenly don’t know what is wrong
You suddenly don’t know who you are
Now you are not that strong

Bridge:
But the sun in the sky seems much the same
It seems there are still frost and rain
No flower or tree has changed
It’s another dull normal day

And all of your schemes and all your plans
Seems so pointless, you are a bug on the shelf
You’re just crawling without knowing yourself
All you know is just how to graze

Sharpen
Your tools
Yes, sharpen
Your senses, fool

Be ready to dig with no tools at all
Be ready to dig when everything falls
Be ready to dig deep into your soul
Be ready to let go
