lyrics

If you take everything away from me,
What's left, am I a worthy man?
If I lose all the bits and pieces that I've found, could I, still hope to stand?

If I shaved off this beard, and never played music again,
Would anybody notice or care?
Have I done what I could, to bridge this gap,
Or have I broken the heart, that I sought to share?

Chorus
Have I moved an inch from the Start?
Is there any more light in the Dark?
Am I more than just the sum of my parts?
Have I given enough of my heart?

Well, I'll place my value in my friends,
You know you can trust your heart in those worthy hands,
Someone to walk beside you as the mad path wends,
Or sit and watch as the damn thing ends.

Chorus

If art is distillation of pain,
I hope my Joy Compactor's fanned your spark into a flame.
I pray that when I'm gone, you'll not forget my name.
And so I ask you to sing with one last refrain.

Yada da da da dai

When this will end for me? I want my roots to grow deep.
