Lyrics

I Know What You?re Made Of

trapped in position
driven to fear
I know what you?re made of
the message I?d hear

that is the challenge
to find what is true
so pick a direction
the only way out is through

in the possession
I am my own
baseless objection
fade then I?m gone

through the rush of concentration dancing all the way
I find that I can say
I know what you?re made of

abandoned intention
inadequate plan
each failure a lesson
I must understand

the feeling is spiritual
deep in the trance
a twist in the structure
the humor of chance

all the crazy most unlikely unintended things
all the strength they bring
I know what you?re made of

now that?s an admission
and nothing to fear
today it?s a compliment
that I?d like to hear
from you it?s a statement that I?ve been waiting to hear

I know what you?re made of.
