Mustard Seed

I carry this burden, this weight round my neck I’ve carried it so long, it’s left scars, sure, you can check I am searching to find some new way to lighten my load Without feeling the guilt of doing as you’re told I wrestle inside me for what might be right It seems sometimes I am not willing to fight A signal, a something, I want to receive And perhaps then I’d be willing to believe If I just relax, sit back and think it all through I have the answer I am sure, let me tell you No need to go looking any further than here; I haven’t yet tried All that I need, everything is waiting, it is all right inside
