Drivin', I'm just drivin'
And I'm not doin' anything else
Tryin', just tryin'
To be with myself
But with distractions runnin' rampant like this
From a cocktail to a Hershey's kiss
To a book on how to find your bliss
I'm drivin', I'm just drivin'
Walkin', just walkin'
I'm right here and right now
Talkin', no more talkin'
'Cause I've got to relearn how
Oh, in the past, so many things I said
Came right out of an empty head
When I could've been quiet instead
Now I'm walkin', I'm just walkin'
Wakin' up can really hurt
But to stay asleep is so much worse
Like drownin' in a river of tears
Dyin' of an awful thirst
Thinkin', no more thinkin'
I've done all that I can
Thinkin', I think thinkin'
Is the bane of man
'Cause 'til you get it where it's gotta be
It's just a monkey swingin' tree to tree
Screamin', "Hey there, look at me"
I'm thinkin', I'm so cool, I'm thinkin'
Wakin' up can really hurt
But to stay asleep is so much work
And that wake-up call is really loud
When it's comin' from the universe
Being, just being
Doesn't that sound heavenly?
Freedom from believing
I've got to be someone else, not me
Oh, every now and then, I catch a glimpse
These lovely subtle hints
Of what comes out of lookin' in
And just being, just being
How freeing
Just being
Thank you
Thank you kindly
