Second Guess Girl

verse 1 Is it time for a speech or for silence Are you calling for peace or defiance Is this darkening counsel or wisdom Are we all perpetrators or victims? verse 2 Is this childlike simple rote history Is it complex deciphering mystery Is this blessing or ill gotten wealth Am I speaking for God or myself? It’s a hard world for a second guess girl With one hand and another I try to take it in but it leaves me spinning Trying to love my sister and brother verse 3 Is this confidence born of a calling Is this ego and pride before falling Are we standing to fight for what’s right Are we angry and hopelessly blind? verse 4 Are we companions of Job or prophets of God Are we not of this world or just painfully odd Is it time for free grace or tough love Or a little of all the above? It’s a hard world for a second guess girl With one hand and another I try to take it in but it leaves me spinning Trying to love my sister and brother Bridge Sooner or later we’ll know more about it Sooner or later we’ll understand why We’ll understand why Verse 5 Is it time for a speech or for silence Are you calling for peace or defiance Is this darkening counsel or wisdom Are we all perpetrators or victims? It’s a hard world for a second guess girl With one hand and another I try to take it in and it leaves me spinning Trying to love my sister and brother It’s a hard hard world for a second guess girl Trying to love my sister, love my brother
