If I didn't know better I'd say that the world turned Just as fast as I could mend all the bridges that I burn Mother told me it would be like this And that the fairy-tale had been spun When you live with bees you're bound to get stung When I can't shut my mind because I've got to make that call To save all my old girlfriends and those I don't recall From all collective sadness and memories of me And show them I am genuine and that I am not a bee BE, BE just BE It's always nice to be the leader And even nicer to have space On the cosmic side of logic Someone told me there is a place Where there's a synthesis of nature And fearless people who believe That there's a safe place in the hornets nest Of which too few of us conceive BE, BE just BE BE me, just BE me In the absence of the chaos, a space of silence fills the room And I realize that when I run this race It's just myself that I consume When all your arbitrary concepts fade Like time, property and words To feel my senses on a mountain top Oh to be a bumble bird As she pulls her zipper up I start to disappear Through all of those whispered words There's none I can even hear Even though without her, I stand here gentle and alone A single tree at Inisfree And a hive to call my own BE BE just BE Who do you want to be? --- Be as written by Jessica/williams Simpson Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing
