This mission: your volition
 
 this ambition: your volition
 
 this friction: your volition
 
 your volition 
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
 
  
  Plumed serpent slithers and slides slow
 
 In this slippery mind this kind I know
 
 And in mine eye I have kind of known, kind of known
  
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
  
 
 Too much confusion with this here kind; Too much
 
 illusion
 
 Too much delusion in this here mind. Why, I know
 
 Illusion; this illusion, disillusion.
  
 
 Somehow the raindrops always fall in rhythm
  
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
  
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
 
 Had I the courage to call you by your true name
  
 
 I'd not mind the rain, I
 
 I'd not mind the change
 
 Whatever I'd find strange I'd name
 
 Your volition, your volition, your volition.
  
 
 This mission: your volition
 
 this ambition: your volition
 
 this friction: your volition
 
 your volition
  
 
 And I sit in the rain, and I'm wondering...
 
 And I sit in the rain and I'm wondering
 
 Why the birds don't sing in this night
 
 Why the kids don't play in this night
 
 Why the sun don't shine
  
 
 Had I the choice to call you; I'm wondering...
 
 Would I see you? I'm wondering 
 
 Would I peel in the thundering sight?
 
 If I'd feel you wandering.
  
 
 This rock I stand on rolls
 
 forever I walk but to where I don't know,
 
 I don't know why the kid don't play in this night
 
 Why the sun don't shine for me
  
 
 Under the night I roam, and stroll
 
 Within the light I'll roam, it's true
  
 
 This mission: your volition
 
 this ambition: your volition
 
 this friction: your volition
 
 your volition
  
 
 Take these two steps on this beach at sunset
 
 At unease with the rest
 
 And my knees at unrest
 
 And my head at unrest
 
 I don't care about the best
 
 This duress is a test
 
 I could do with a rest now
  
 
 Let my mind relax
 
 Let my soul come back
 
 Let me know I passed with the courage
  
 
 This mission: your volition
 
 this ambition: your volition
 
 this friction: your volition
 
 your volition
  
 
 Your volition is the faith that drives me on and on...
