Puzzles Lyrics

Puzzles- Dan and Leland

Been walking dotted lines
Down unfamiliar roads
Following the signs
In a language I don't know
Been complicating
Things that once were clear
Folding up into myself like I might disappear
And all the while I'm singing

Chorus
For a moment, I thought it all made sense
I caught a little glimpse, but it came and went
For a moment, I swore that I could change
But I've been tongue-tied,
Turned around and beaten down
Lied to and the puzzles still remain

Familiar interloper
Reject my own suggestions
Been turning over
Stones and leaves and questions
Been calculating,
Trying to make it all add up
But the pattern's fading
And I'm never fast enough
So I'm still singing

Chorus

Last Chorus
For a moment, I thought it all made sense
I caught a little glimpse, but it came and went
For a moment, I swore that I could change
But I've been tongue-tied,
Turned around and beaten down
Run-down, shook up but spellbound
Tongue-tied, turned around and beaten down
Lied to and the puzzles still remain
