I feel inspired
But it's hard to write
When I have so many words in my head
And a foggy, blocked sight.

All these revelations
Epiphanies and truths
But I can't find the words
To explain them from their roots.

It's not that simple for me
No, not today
The structure evades me
Making my song hard to say.

I guess I know everything
At least inside my head
A deep profound understanding
Like the color red.

I could say I know why
The flowers bloom in the spring
Or how we learned to speak
And what love has to bring.

But really the true knowledge
Is realizing what you know
Is really something no more than nothing
And what it has to show.

It's everything you've always known
And the little voice in your mind
That tingle in your toes
And when your heart beats out of rhyme.

It's what you've always wanted to say
And everything you've wanted to do
What I really know
Is nothing more than you.

It's what makes you look up
Instead of looking down
And what makes you smile
Or what makes you frown.

It's when you cry so hard you laugh
And when you laugh so hard you cry
It's those secrets you see in the mirror
And those motto's you live by.

I don't know anything more than you
I just express it well
Instead of locking it inside
And wishing things were swell.

So really what I've been trying to write
Though I've written many lines
Is that everyone knows something
It's just whether or not they've realized.
