Come Clean
A better life than this one's comin'
I can hear the bell
there's an unceremonious break in the silence
in the clear, blue shell
I guess the time is nigh and the hour's at hand
so much for all the dreams that I dreamed and the plans I planned
take a walk with the stone-faced prophets
let 'em lead me down
can't recall any future that I lost
or the past I found
there's a brand new bird with a strange call
come to bring a message to us all
and I wish that I could come clean
for now the heart is seen
do you know what I mean?
it's an unfamiliar shadow
an unfamiliar shape
the light is gettin' stronger
said I can feel it penetrate
my companions vanish one and all
said I wish I was big 'stead of fashioned oh so small
now as the world falls apart and the void comes rushin' in
ain't no room for a good deed or a sin
for no judgment pass through the gate
just the hungry child within with an empty plate
just your hungry child within with an empty plate
and I wish that I could come clean
for now the heart is seen
do you know what I mean?
