I can teach you while I pack to leave The world is your oyster, crack open the shell Start writing the story that you want to tell Don't take for granted what's right before your eyes Cut out the ego, let go of the lies What a sweet release, weight fallen off my back I am floating, am I still in view? What a strange disease the world seems to have As we're all biting off less than we can chew The world is your oyster, crack open the shell Start writing the story that you want to tell Don't take for granted what's right before your eyes Cut out the ego, let go of the lies If we were bare naked, standing plain to see, Would you be happy, or run and hide? There's no way to fake it, it's just you and me, And I can see what's deep, deep inside And knots are tied around my stomach ache Reach in and take the shakes from my core The better parts will be revealed, but for now my lips are sealed 'Till I feel better than before The world is your oyster, crack open the shell Start writing the story that you want to tell Don't take for granted what's right before your eyes Cut out the ego, let go of the lies Lies, lies
