It's a feeling i don't welcome . but it's coming on anyway
Seems like every time i meet it . got a little bit less to say
I can't stand the questions . but i ask them anyway
Easy never came easy to me
Must life be this way? life must be this way
Never a soft feeling i've known
Is it unison or harmony?. or some weird in-between?
I sense dissonance in symmetry . do you know what i mean?
There's a tension in my radar, . in the colors of the day
Is there meaning in that tension or is life just that way?
Seek vitality of tenderness and apply it to my self
In a gentle conversation with someone i love very much
Never a soft feeling i've known
My heaven is a blandness
A stillness of the mind
Even hidden right in plain view
It's still so hard to find
Yet they find it in Los Angeles
Where the dream is as wet as rain
And they find it in old virginia
Where the song remains the same
How it used to make me jealous
Now it kind of turns me on
Let the feeling be so spacious
That there's room for everyone
Into the feeling unknown
Theres a sickness in my country
I can feel it in my heart
And i know i am a part of it
Though i keep myself apart
Plese don't let them outlaw silence
That is where peace likes to grow
Let vitality of tenderness
Live with all that we don't know
Into the feeling unknown
Never a soft feeling i've known
