A song I wrote and got a bunch of my ridiculously talented friends to sing and play on.

Fmaj A7
One thing sometimes seems like another
Dmin G7
Upon closer inspection, a curse is a blessing
Fmaj Cmaj Bbmaj
So you float into yourself

Sometimes you just got no idea
The meaning seems hidden but really, it isn't
So you fold into yourself
You search in the faces of the people you know
You feel like Magellan but the faces aren't telling
So you fold into yourself

You think maybe you'll find it in some place exotic
In an old elevator or a dinosaur crater
So you fold into yourself

Start to get worried, you start to panic
Let out your breath and you use what's left
To fold into yourself

You wake from your dream all groggy confused
And the hand that you're holding means you are unfolding
And you found it in yourself
Fmaj A7 Dmin
It was small and insecure
G7 Cmaj
But it begins to grow and grow, the doubts get fewer and fewer
