Search your mind for secret ills
Find the cracks that require fills
Roll it away and give it a name
We take what's wild and we make it tame
Shifting figures in the light
Find the shapes that serve you right
Just like a slave
Back in the cave
There's always safe ways over roads unpaved
If Eyes can see clearly
Why did I wait so long?
I'm gonna grip the ropes dearly
And lift us to where we belong
If Eyes can see clearly
Why do they close so long?
I tricked myself nearly
Thinking all the hard work was done
Roll it away and give it a name
Roll the stone smoothly
Something to keep your mind on
Hand by hand slowly
Lift it to where it belongs
