Cause
and effect
And the pendulum swings
Unpredictably
It seems
And I am not prepared
I suffer effect
And the change it brings
But cannot find
The cause it seems
And I am small and scared
Pummelled by rage
Then a jovial joust
A friendly refrain
And a silent house
I cannot understand
Just enough
To keep me afloat
With an open heart
In a sinking boat
Yet I still hold your hand
Just enough
To keep me in tears
Just enough
To keep me in doubt
Just enough
To keep me in fear
Of the killing effects
For which I clearly
Cannot find a cause...
