Universal Understanding Lyrics by Gary B Lucas

The Way My Story Goes

2015

[Verse 1]
You'd think that we'd have a universal understanding by now
But communication seems to suffered a breakdown
We all know that we have had a difficult time so far (so far)
We've listened to each other and we know how we got our scars
[Pre-Chorus]
But that doesn't stop us from damaging further
And we seem to forget how to care for one another
[Chorus]
When I go to bed I should not feel scared
But is there anybody out there who is likely to be prepared for the thoughts that run through my head
And my tendency to fall out of bed?
[Verse 2]
I thought you would understand, I thought you would take my hand
And lead me to the end of the bridge where I could tread on safe land
But instead you just teased me, I had the end in sight (I had the end in sight)
Then you cut the bridge in half and now I'm in full flight (flight)
[Pre-Chorus]
And we seem to forget (seem to forget) how to care (how to care)
And we seem to excel at creating despair
[Chorus]
When I go to bed (go to bed) I should not feel scared (not feel scared)
But is there anybody out there who is likely to be prepared for the thoughts that run through my head
And my tendency to fall out of bed?
Oh, oh, oh
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
When I go to bed I should not feel scared
But is there anybody out there who is likely to be prepared for the thoughts that run through my head
And my tendency to fall out of bed?
Oh, oh
[Outro]
And my whole new world has mellowed
Another sun to raise the sorrow
And it seems like I am witness
To a whole new kind of bliss-ness
When I go to bed I should not feel scared
I don't feel scared
