Oh the world will be so much more than it was And the life you'll lead will see much more than it does, For the power behind your fatigue-addled mind May not rest its head as resigned. Your brilliance has always been measured in eyes That are far too rarely your own. May you find the street that you know you must cross, And the journey from what you have sown. And so clear it will be, on your pillow at night That you've come to where you had dreamt. And through tears defiling the doubts you had kept You may assuage what was once yourself.

Oh, If Only You Knew
Oh the world will be so much more than it was And the life you'll lead will see much more than it does, For the power behind your fatigue-addled mind May not rest its head as resigned. Your brilliance has always been measured in eyes That are far too rarely your own. May you find the street that you know you must cross, And the journey from what you have sown. And so clear it will be, on your pillow at night That you've come to where you had dreamt. And through tears defiling the doubts you had kept You may assuage what was once yourself.
