Still I Can't Be Still

Idina Menzel · Still I Can't Be Still [1998]

Well I don't believe in God

But she talks to me all the time

And I banish my mother

But she holds me when I cry

And I have been unfaithful but

With me he'll spend the rest of his life



Yes I have been forgiven

By all whom I've betrayed and loved

And I have everything I want

Is it ever enough



Still I can't be still

Still I can't be silent

Still I can't be still

Still I can't be saved

Still I can't be still

I can't be silent

Still I'm... still



Well I don't believe I'm beautiful but

At least I've got my sister's smile

And I resist the muses yet

They sing to me in exile

And destiny is not deafening

But it hushed me like a child



And every time I feel as though

I'm closer to the eye

The storm winds blow

I run inside and though I feel revived



Still I can't be still

Still I can't be silent

Still I can't be still

Still I can't be saved

Still I can't be still

I can't be silent

Still I'm... still



The insatiable peace

My quest for true serenity

No matter how hard the rain

The thirst is neverending

No matter how many friends or angels

Been sent down to take me away

They can't make it okay

They can't make it okay



And every time I feel as though

I'm closer to the eye

The storm winds blow

I run inside and though I feel revived

And every time I feel as though

I'm closer to the eye

The storm winds blow

I run inside and though I feel revived

I don't believe I'm beautiful

At least I've got my sister's smile

And I resist the muses yet

They sing to me still...
