Gut and head

You always pretend as if it is very easy
because you want to help me if I don't know how to go on
that's nice of you and I appreciate that
but it doesn't get me further.
You are so firm and fierce
at rest in yourself and that's fine for you
I'm fine with that, and I envy that
but it doesn't change anything, sadly
 
As you believe, as you live
and that's OK, as long as it suits you
hold on to it, it doesn't apply to me
 
Gut says yes to head, but head says no to gut
and I stand in between, between those two
I stand
Gut says yes to head, but head says no
then it shakes
between those two I stand, between those two I stand
and don't know...
 
For I always search for something and there is always something missing
even though it is essentially good and practically fine
I see you and how you do
but alike you, I am not
I have bees in my bonnet and ants in my pants
I am always doing something, always busy
but if it turns silent around me the ghosts arise
and I question myself every time
 
As you believe, as you live
and that's OK, as long as it suits you
hold on to it, it doesn't apply to me
 
Gut says yes to head, but head says no to gut
and I stand in between, between those two
I stand
Gut says yes to head, but head says no
then it shakes
between those two I stand, between those two I stand
and don't know...
and don't know...
and don't know...
and don't know...
 
For I always search for something and there is always something missing
it is never enough and always too little
as you believe, as you live
listen to your heart, as long as that works
as long as that works...
 
Gut says yes to head, but head says no to gut
and I stand in between, between those two
I stand
Gut says yes to head, but head says no
then it shakes
between those two I stand, between those two I stand
and don't know...
and don't know...
