Stretch Away
(c) 2013, Dean G Wolfe


If you want to know ‘bout yourself; read a thousand books on a shelf
there’s no telling what you could be; like a seed turn into a tree (whoa whoa...)


Branching out’s a good plan to make; not too far though, you’ll start to break
Keep it close to what you do best; then you’ll stand out from all the rest (whoa whoa.....)


stretch away from the box
crack the code, find the key, break the locks
        you might cry, you may bleed
        Be a light, be the truth and then you lead


It’s a laugh, how small we can feel
Tell me who invented the wheel
and this universe that we’re in
used to fit on top of a pin


Fear be gone; It’s contrary
to your progress and your glory


Hate be gone; It’s not funny
Sticks to you like sticky honey


Guilt’s the same; It’s a shame
like a never ending game


So lies be gone; that’s the bomb: 
Lies are what it’s built upon
