Exploring - Stepdad

Forcing is different than trying

We can smell each other lying

Never let impatience be your guide

We’re only human but we’ve lived too many days

To let a single bad one come and fill us with pain

He doesn’t want to be found

He’ll be hiding out, He’ll be hiding

Be still and don’t make a sound

He will cry out to the night sky now

Fleeing is different than leaving

Reprieve will never be so freeing

When did you decide we don’t need the moon when we’ve got flashlights

How can you discount a million years shining at our side

He doesn’t want to be found

He’ll be hiding out, He’ll be hiding

Be still and don’t make a sound

He will cry out to the night sky now

We’re like the animals now

Hunting shapes and sounds into morning

Trapping and holding them down

Let them go and keep on exploring

Forcing is different than trying

We can smell each other lying
