The Bearing - We Are Becoming

Close to tears, I'm all full up
There is no place left to
Run and hide, no piece of mind
Remains untouched by this
All that is, and all that will beyond my wildest dreams
Fortune is as fortune does it seems
All the plans in the world
Can't prepare you for it
All the bumps in the road
Can't deter you from it
Like a flower opening
To the warmth of the sun
It has begun
We are becoming
Write them down, then tear them up
I kill my darlings, then
Testify to alibis of Creative whims, but
Truth be told I wouldn't have it any other way
Failure-free is failure too, they say
All the joys that you've felt
Are a prelude to it
All the sorrows you're dealt
An incentive for it
Like a flower opening
To the warmth of the sun
It has begun
We are becoming
Take a look around, darling
Nothing to be found out if your
Feet are on the ground, then you'll
Never have a sound worth making
Bend them till they break
Then expect to be berated as you
Fly up in the face of the
Unfavourably weighted machine
Sown in deep the seeds we reap, internal fields of minds
Blow the truth just out of reach, that
We've each got two lives
The second begins the moment
We finally fathom
That we only ever did have one
All the people we meet
Who tell us we are wrong
All the shoulders our feet
Are now standing upon
Like a flower opening
To the warmth of the sun
It has begun
We are becoming
