Michael Tiernan "You hide"

“You Hide”

I feel your presence everywhere.
It jumps out at me when I'm aware.
You're beauty is so manifold
everywhere I go.

It's been said before, it'll be said again
through different throats and languages.
Throught the heroes and the saviors bold
the same thing is known

Chorus:
That you're as near
As this heart is here.
Just behind the differences
You hide.

And in the fire on the mountaintops,
In the sacrifice to all the gods.
Even in the poison in the junkies veins,
that need cries out  your name.

But we can't afford to disagree
cause we're all talking about the same damn things.
Words are fingers pointing at the moon,
Notes mistaken for the tune.

Chorus

Bridge:
In the hero, savior, and the sage
they denied the world so they could embrace it
Then loving from that empty space
where truth could come reside.

Some might ask why you're so damn hard to find.
We can get all angry that our hearts are blind.
But if the truth was found so easily
would we not cast it aside?

Togetherness is the same as being separate. What separates us is our mind and its many thoughts, what unites us is our mind and its many thoughts. One gave birth to the many, and separateness will give birth to Unity. Walk down the very end of the most lonely road, only then you will see that you were never alone, but always conencted to all living beings on the very same plight.
