All Wrapped Up 03:51
lyrics
buy track
[Chorus] Do you believe truth is owned - is all wrapped up? No question ask, for answer known - is carved in stone? Can you conceive there maybe more, I wonder? [Verse 1] I wonder how so sure Mind free from doubt conviction Is it by hand divine Some see God implausible? [Verse 2] I wonder how so sure Mind free from doubt perception Is it by hand divine Some see God impersonal? [Repeat Chorus] [Verse 3] I wonder how so sure Mind free from doubt believing Is it by hand divine Some see God reality? [Repeat Chorus] [Instrumental + spoken word] It's almost as if a wand is waved to create a magical spell by which the object finds their reality entirely believable ... regardless of how fetched it might seem to others :) [Verse 4] I wonder how so sure Mind free from doubt confidence Is it by hand divine Some see one and difference? [Chorus to Fade]
