rick klaus theis - i feel everything lyrics

i feel everything, but expressing it comes painfully slowly
like trying to undress a statue with my bare fingers
how many years?
how many tears?
how much frustration?
how much insanity?
and then, how much is finally said?
nothing really
truths only hinted at, how far below essence lies dead
like the black man who carved into wood
the story of how he was nearly lynched
then said, “that shows it just the way it happened”
well, not exactly, only partially
more like infinitesimally, or not at all
for the substance of that experience stayed buried deep inside
beyond the scope of dna and a glob of electricity
that irretrievably drained as his body died
but i live yet, in agony, awaiting my fate, making love to my pain
what else can i do?
all words are untrue
this paper is just another self+created mirror
which will not polish clean
its myriad distortions
a turned, shout, shroud, charade [?]
and yet it is said, patience is a virtue
but i know instead, patience is a vulture
made up of time, picking at my spine
pick, tick, pick, tick, pick, tick, die
