lyrics

The Inner Voice

If it’s all the same to you I think I’ll keep my self-respect
I know it’s out of fashion, but I’ve never been in step
And while we’re on the subject may I ask that you return
The faith I lost along the way; the innocence that burned

It’s funny what the people say; they just don’t have a clue
That is if ‘funny’ is a eulogy to servitude
Some say time heals and though it’s true there’ll always be a scar
A dulling of sensation; a wishing upon faded stars

But you did me a great favour, in a melancholic way
The lesson learned and actioned for today
Is to take heed of the inner voice, and serve that impulse well
Have courage in conviction; break the shell

I put my trust in you; I felt I really knew your kind
And kindness blossomed from the weed-patch of your troubled mind
But the pollen was infected, and the honey not so sweet
With an aftertaste of folly and conceit

The curtain fell; you took a bow and nursed your open wounds
Pain self-inflicted, dressed with camouflage and partial truths
It must take boundless energy to suffer so thus far
I wish you well in solitude, but I don’t play with broken glass

Yes you did me a great favour, in a melancholic way
The lesson learned and actioned for today
Is to take heed of the inner voice, and serve that impulse well
Have courage in conviction; break the spell

If it’s all the same to you I think I’ll keep my self-respect
The pain got lost along the way; my innocence adjourned
