put my dreams in my hands so i know i'm sure
give me all that i want from this giant world
but you can't seem to not tally it up so we know the score

show me how i'm a man, show me the light
show me the wings of the day and the depths of the night
but you can't seem to not show me all that you sacrificed

and well, nothing is harder than to know how much i still owe you

you could move like a silver cloud through the sky
you could move like a secret and slip past my life
but you can't seem to quit... movin' words around to show who was right

and well, nothing is harder than to know that you were never wrong, dear
