Lyrics for Move Around

What do we do given life? We move around Solitude, reach for light Reach or slide We move around One searches for the sake of searching Clearly then stumbling, falling, lurching We move around A superb point of reference detected Becomes absurd with a moment's reflection Leaves one a passage of simple thought Not sagging with excess weight of excess baggage And we move around We move around One thinks then sinks then stands at a brink Finds a key, instincts of revelation Drinking in exaltation We move, we move around No need to prove No one around No one but you To stand your ground We move around Don't you know it's alright to be wrong? Thus you grow, be amused and be strong The acceptance of error with grace Is to refuse to be vain and so afraid of losing face This fear drives one further into what one thinks To be a race of life or death Or simply take another breath of nature's air now Which is fair now Which is to be alive To move around
