Everyone Knows It but You
By the twist of your mouth and a tear you've allowed
There's a rumor believed to be true
In an ignorant bliss there's a secret you missed
And everyone knows it but you
You're tipping the balance as life slips away
A curious talent to sparkle and fade
But you're a bird over sea and a flower in bloom
Everyone knows it but you
There's a stain on your dress and a mark on your neck
And a mantra you stole from a song
And though you feel you're exiled like a red headed child
Everyone knows you belong
A crystalline vision alive in your eyes
A fragile religion of truth in disguise
You're a gift more than good in a season renewed
Everyone knows it but you
Yeah you're tipping the balance as life slips away
A curious talent to sparkle and fade
But you're a bird over sea and a flower in bloom
And when you're down on your knees you'll inherit the truth
Everyone knows everyone knows
Everyone knows it but you...
