When

As I'm starin' out this window
I'm watchin' the sun goin' down
And I'm wondering about each moment
Up ahead

But darlin', don't be worried
Whatever place I'm headin' to
You can be sure that sooner or later
I'll find my way.

Well it's true I ain't no palm reader
And I lost my crystal ball
I'm fresh out of magic potions
But I know I ain't lost no more.

Baby, all I know is
I ain't lost no more.

When you let it all build

You've become adept at being strong
And letting everyone know
That it's all under control
But you like to keep secrets
Neglecting to mention
That it's hatred creating those calluses
And the anger that's making you hard

So build up all those walls around you
And let all those bricks shut out the sunshine
It's your fortress, after all
And you have to stay protected
Wrapped up and safe when your lay down your head

Just remember that in the meantime
You gotta find time to grow
Take a little water and reach toward the sky.

You let it all build
You stack it all up
But one day, baby
You'll have to let it all fall
Down.
Down. 
Down.
