The Kick Inside
Verse 1
Beginning of something
Delicate and slowly growing
New and original
Continuing the cycle
Precious and always forming
Commonplace and popular
Enjoying a moment
Beautiful and always real
With yourself or someone else
Dreaming wide awake
Different and slowly growing
Confident and optimistic
Verse 2
Upside down, right side up
Counter-clockwise, counter-culture
Lemons out of lemonade
Breakdown, build up
Love and hate and indifference
Everything old is new again
Eyes wide shut, open-minded
Uncommon, extraordinary
Always hiding in plain sight
Alone, not lonely
Over, under, swinging around
Pushing past many limits
Verse 3
Half-empty, half-full
Perception versus reality
Complexities of life
Winning when losing
Matters of perspective
Who you are and what you won't do
Chorus
The kick inside
Moments which keep us alive
As the world keeps on turning
As time marches on
As the sun rises and as the sun sets
The kick inside will keep us alive
