One So Wise - Spock's Beard

He headed out that night into the dark

Inspired by a fleeting thought

«Could there be more to this epigraph

Than the bill of goods that I just bought?»

And with a rush, his feet began to move

Pacing with a quickening heart

Would this be the thing he’d chased for years

Or just another lifeless start?

You are

The still glowing ember

Just waiting to burn

You cannot know

That which you will not learn

Suddenly, now the clouds have gone

Darkness giving way unto the dawn

Every step toward redemption seals his fate

One so wise as he once knew

The unturned stone will hide what’s true

And offer us our desire far too late

I am the Id

I am your present danger

Holding the truth within my hand

Reveal the face of fear inside of you, lad

Unseat me if you can

I’ve always been here

I’ll always be here

I hope you understand

There’s only one real thing

It’s been you all along

Go forward and tell them

Before the memory has gone
