"All Around" lyrics

"All Around"

Why do the moonbeams linger when you wake
Why do you hold your silence for other people's sake
Why are the worlds within you whirling round
Why does the hand of love pin you to the ground
Is it getting too profound?
The answer is all around you
Yes, it's all around you
Yes, it's all around you
Inside and out

Why are the wolves still scratching at the door
Why do the Gods embrace you then throw you to the floor
Why do the joys within you feed the doubt
And why do those who raise you always have to shout
What's it all about?

The answer is all around you
Yes, it's all around you
Yes, it's all around you
Inside and out

No, I'm not weak
No, I'm not weak
No, I'm not weak
I still have the courage to speak
Speak out

All around you
All around you
Yes, it's all around you
Day in and day out

Yes, it's all around you
Inside and out
Yes, it's all around you
Inside and out
Yes, it is
