Rewrite the Book

It's been too long since we took a look
We need to rewrite the book, rewrite the book
We have always thought it was a little mistook
Fighting for the look, as we really didn't look
It's time to find another way to say
What it is that needs to be said
It's time to find a little pay
In what we see when we're led
To look at the mirror and see it clear
Take a second look
We need to take another look
It's been too long since the story has been shook
We need to rewrite the book, rewrite the book
Moment of glory is a mystery took
Literally took
We need history a little more shook
We need to rewrite the book
Take another look
Get a little shook
When it's a little mistook
Literally took
A little we took
A great piece of art
And took it to heart
A story from history and made it a part
Of all the mystery a wasted start
To define the line and mistaking the dark
Made it light when it was right from the start
How do we say what is said when we depart
Lighten the heart, lighten who we are
Get it together before you star
In the next perplexing interesting start
My, to like who we are
We need to see the very heart
A way to say what has got to be said
A way to write the right to be led
A way to fight the enlightened thread
If we don't the dark will find us dead
I know it's called heresy
To say what is there to see
But hey, we can barely breathe
And say a page without outraging me
You've got peace to please
At least be at ease
Don' t let your mind cease to see
The face we face
Looking at the reflection
Rethink the way and get a good direction
Say what it is and be without perfection
