True wisdom
Is the kind you can feel
The body knows when it’s real
But I haven’t felt it in a while
Spaced out and numb
Coasting in a white lane
The reflex of shame
No I’m not feeling very wise
I drink when I choke
I make terrible jokes
I’m scared and I know
I should be
What I’m looking for…
Oh, the smoke and the flame
Somebody gave it a name
True refuge
True refuge
A reunion of sparks
Oh true refuge
True refuge
Is here and now
For all of us
True wisdom
Is a pain you can hold
Until away it goes
But I haven’t felt it in a while
True wisdom
Comes whenever it may
At the end of the day
I haven’t felt it in a while
Well I drink when I choke
I make terrible jokes
I’m scared and I know
I should be
What I’m looking for…
Oh, the smoke and the flame
Somebody gave it a name
True refuge
True refuge
A reunion of sparks
Oh true refuge
True refuge
Is here and now
For all of us
