lyrics

Now I contradict myself by trying to let go
To will my way out of giving up control
To rest in truth, resign to trust
But the harder that I try the less that I can think at all

And now to filter out all this sound
is more than I can manage
You've found my restless wandering
Can you slow down
it's all I can to just to notice

You're calling out my restless heart
Can you remind it how to listen
I'm looking for a peace beyond what I'm feeling
I can't will it, can I will it into being

And now to filter out all this sound
is more than I can manage
You've found my restless wandering
Can you slow down
Until I can understand it

Can't think my way out of overthinking
Can't make surrender an ascension of the will
It's grown so loud again, it's drowning out
the stillness I'd forgotten
