What I have learned is the detail In less of a rush and I know it sounds strange Knowledge is wealth and is grieving The memory's gone and it has to give way Sometimes I watch and just listen I saw from the side and that I didn't write down And don't bring me harm but I'm missing I'm finding the weakness and I'm working it out Just when I think there's an answer You fire a question and I'm thrown off guard How could I ever remember You don't understand it when I go too far It's not that I'm trying to defend it The animal instinct that I can't explain I put a paper and send it Buy me some time before I'm ready again Say I'm down and in the street My words will knock you off your feet Speak now or never hold your peace That's how it's got to be okay What I have learned is the detail In less of a rush and I know it sounds strange Knowledge is wealth and is grieving The memory's gone and it has to give way Sometimes I watch and just listen I saw from the side and that I didn't write down And don't bring me harm but I'm missing I'm finding the weakness and I'm working it out Say I'm down and in the street My words will knock you off your feet Speak now or never hold your peace That's how it's got to be okay That's how it's got to be okay That's how it's got to be okay
