Lyrics

Fact and Friction

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When you've wandered around so long,

You can't come back down.

Now you're forgetting how to keep

your feet on the ground.

Tried to fade away,

But the only truth I found...

I see through my crossed eyes,

These hands are bound.

Don't you see, it's all me?

Creating the fact and the friction,

The human condition,

against your tradition.

Here's my prediction:

I believe what's in front of me.

My premonition:

You're just a little naive.

Let go of what you think you know

If you could only see my prediction

I believe what's in front of me.

And you can't fake that kind of reality

Twenty years of working hard

Just to lose it all.

Who'd have known I could get this high,

but still feel so small?

Pardon my mistakes,

the ones you never saw.

Admit you missed it all,

You made me fall.

Don't you see, it's all me?

Creating the fact and the friction,

The human condition,

against your tradition.

Here's my prediction:

I believe what's in front of me.

My premonition:

You're just a little naive.

Let go of what you think you know

If you could only see my prediction

I believe what's in front of me.

And you can't fake that kind of reality

Don't you see, it's all me?

Here's my prediction:

I believe what's in front of me.

My premonition:

You're just a little naive.

Let go of what you think you know

If you could only see my prediction

I believe what's in front of me.

And you can't fake that kind of reality
