The face of a clock hides behind time
But the mirror can never lie
Even the most convincing performance
Cannot hide the tear in your eye
~
How are you? I’m fine
To the world out there
Inside, the storm is raging
None of this seems fair
~
There’s no peace in the valley
For as long as this endures
Climbing back to equilibrium
Life expects you to find the cures
~
There are no ladders from heaven
Or buying a more blissful attitude
Search the contents of your soul
Start with embracing gratitude
~
Throw away the scorecard
Forget the questions of everyone
Jettison the mask you wear
Look toward and feel the sun
