SHORT CUT BLUES

You've got to take, every step, along the way, every day.
You've got to take, every step, along the way, every day.
There ain't no short cuts, only the short cut blues.

Said no one else, can take your place, everybody's got to make, their own mistakes.
Said no one else, can take your place, everybody's got to make, their own mistakes.
There ain't no short cuts, only the short cut blues.

The destination is not the goal, it's the journey that makes us grow.
The destination is not the goal, it's the journey that makes us grow.
There ain't no short cuts, only the short cut blues.

There ain't no quick way to know love's bliss, 'cause trust is earned and too easily missed.
There ain't no quick way to know love's bliss, 'cause truth is hard to see and easily dismissed.
There ain't no short cuts, only the short cut blues.

There's only one that knows the way, who went the distance didn't turn away.
There's only one that knows the way, who goes the distance and does to this day.
Didn't take no short cuts, just went the whole way through ... thru blue, true blue.

FULL CIRCLE

Oh tell me something, uh if you would.
How do you know when your'e feeling good?
Is it at someone else's expense?
That's no good it's common sense.
What goes around, comes around again full circle.

And just because you think your'e hot.
You think you'll always come out on top.
You think you're such a clever dick.
Don't mean your prize won't make you sick.
What goes around, comes around again full circle.

You say the end justifies the means. 
Broken lives and broken dreams.
Well you can run and you can hide.
But you can't get away from the truth inside.
What goes around, comes around again full circle.

And every seed that you might sow.
Well it might live and it might grow.
And from it's source will come it's yield.
And there's a harvest come to the field.
What goes around, comes around again full circle.

DOES A BIRD WONDER WHY?

Does a bird wonder why? Why god gave it wings.
Or does it just fly? Is that the nature of things?
To be what god made them. To be what they are.

Watched a spider spin its web. As it wound a single thread.
Round and round and, twist and turned. Until it saw its purpose served.
All of the hours. All of the days, something is saved.

I come to you. Like a moth to a flame.
To be consumed in the fire. Of loves holy name.
Something from nothing. To nothing returns, yet something remains.

Tho I didn't know. You were waiting for me.
Watching me always. But I didn't see.
You ever were faithful. You ever were true, ever my friend.

Does a bird wonder why? Why god gave it wings. 
Or does it just fly? Is that the nature of things? 
To be what god made us. To be what we are, meant to be.
