Greatest Misery

Dave Crosby

Please don't tell me about your dreams
I get bored of hearing these unreal things
From your sleep in galactic refineries

I think about our brains these strange machines
oh they write like authors these crazy things
Think of my thoughts 'til I'm caught in the irony

The greatest misery, this mystery, the best misfortune
control freak turning the inside out
and we are the luckiest so fortunate
but blessings have curses that cover the inside out
I'm on the inside out
I'm on the inside

A boy in a field holds a new balloon
and cries at the fear of it gone too soon
fists clenched tight blocks its flight 'til it slowly dies
oh it never flies
and these lies while were young as we grow it stings
the wounds don't heal from dishonestly
and honestly we are wrecked by this prize

The greatest misery has hit me, the best misfortune,
control freak, turning the inside out
and we are the luckiest so fortunate
but blessings have curses that cover the inside out
and I'm on the inside out
I'm on the inside

If it's just a piece of me
then where is the peace in me
It's just a part of me
and it's keeping the heart in me just

The greatest misery, this mystery, the best misfortune,
control freak, turning the inside out
and we are the luckiest so fortunate
but blessings have curses that cover the inside out
and I'm on the inside out
I'm on the inside
