lyrics

Figuring It Out

Life itself is a complex puzzle
the pieces are fragments of some greater scenes,
where I try to make sense of the chaos
to finally know what it all means.
My existence is made up of abstract thoughts
with hints and clues, scattered about,
I gather intel, examine all the data;
trying to make sense of it all
piece by piece, figuring it out.
Figuring it out.

Seems like there’s far too many parts here,
with some things that don’t match at all,
mingled with segments that look almost right
but don’t correspond to any square and ball.
Still, I feel that everything I need is here somewhere
I gotta just find the right fit to route
for the reveal; it’s cryptic answers;
sizing the pieces together
sure but steady, figuring it out.
Figuring it out.

My logical reasoning and analysis?
It can help confirm what I already know,
but I gotta ponder and hope and pray
to catch the vision of how it’s supposed to go.

Each puzzle piece; a part of the bigger picture
interlocking sides to reveal more of the scene,
to glimpse a delineation as it falls into place
to what the finished reflection could be.
My jigsaw will never be complete
till I push past my uncertainties and doubt
and methodically put the final fragments into place
one by one, bit by bit; figuring it out.
Figuring it out.
