Too Good - Jess Ray

 Are you weak, are you poor are you wanting for more, in the quiet of your heart?

What does the quiet of your heart search for? What do you find yourself wanting in the quiet of your heart? Or do you run away from the quiet of your heart for fear of what you will find there?

Sweetheart, stop cutting your sweet arms, no hope, smoking dope and drinking your life away. lets dance and sing, lets eat from the tree, Come down to the river with me. 

What do you do to escape from feeling? It may sound weird that someone would seek out purposeful pain as an escape - I know most escapes for people are things that numb pain, whether that is drugs, alcohol, pornography or video games, the things we do to escape generally provide a dulling of the senses, but I think self injury falls into this same category because it provides something different (and generally stronger) to feel than the emotional turmoil inside. It is a physical manifestation of the emotional pain that you are feeling inside, and provides something different that allows you to numb out the internal conflict and pain.

It may be too good to be understood, but it's not too good to be true. 

Have you ever felt fully and completely understood, for who you are, deep inside clear to your bones? Friend, it's not too good to be true. Nothing compares for me to the realization that I am completely fully and entirely understood. 

But darlin' you're gonna find where you came from. Don't let your eyes deceive your heart, believe the best is yet to come.

Deep down, believe that the best is yet to come. That it's not too good to be true. That thing you long for in the quiet of your heart - to be understood, fully known and fully loved. It's true.

It may be too good to be understood, but its not too good to be true. He may be too good to be understood, but he's not to good to be.

It is not as we've seen, it is not as we've read, it is not as they've said. How we need to forget, we need to reset and be like children again. Are you hungry and have no money? You can sit at this table. Are you thirsty and unworthy? You can draw from this well. 

Are you weak, are you poor are you wanting for more, in the quiet of your heart? To yourself you say I wish someone would pass my way, and give me a new start. Sweetheart, stop cutting your sweet arms, no hope, smoking dope and drinking your life away. lets dance and sing, lets eat from the tree, Come down to the river with me. 

It may be too good to be understood, but its not too good to be true. 

From the dust we came, to the dust we all will go. We brought nothing with us, we'll take nothing on, Heaven knows keep in mind, it'll take a little time, But darlin' you're gonna find where you came from. Don't let your eyes deceive your heart, believe the best is yet to come. 

It may be too good to be understood, but its not too good to be true. He may be too good to be understood, but he's not to good to be.
