Extricated 03:39
Willows weep in the miles of aching dreams Floating high with breezes to the sky Mixing on his canvas so he can pass the time The open road turns off our mind Vault our worries to another time Lines as I pass, a blurred drawing guide Every red X marks my spot, it’s a sign Open road turns off our mind Domesticated Not really your friend It will be a fight to the end No longer sedated Injected awake with truth Wilderness comes for you Vault our worries to another time Lines as I pass, a blurred drawing guide Every red X marks my spot, it’s a sign Open road turns off our mind Animated Reject our false obligations Wilderness I’m coming for you Extricated Freedom we never knew Wilderness I’m coming for you Vault our worries to another time Lines as I pass, a blurred drawing guide Every red X marks my spot, it’s a sign Open road turns off our mind The open road turns off our mind

They may say we’re childish Look at them running around I’m sorry to say they’ve convinced me After watching them hit the ground We can’t mumble these questions Even though I know what you’ve said These false senses make sense For living while we are dead So what if, what if, what if we did? Like when we were kids Take our time to live I can’t imagine any other way to be me To be we, to be free I have a gift of knowing Call it my raven’s eye I can’t tell you where we’re going But it’s time we say our goodbyes We know we hear our soul But we’re captivated by gold Ensured when were old Before we know we’re sold So what if, what if, what if we did? Like when we were kids Take our time to live I can’t imagine any other way to be me To be we, to be free Captivated Before we know we’re sold Before we know we’re sold Before we know we’re sold The emperor I must flee Faces shiny in greed This tower is reversed I won’t be afraid To blow it up and walk away

Berlin, a city may be built Berlin, a city may be built But not, you’re not grown yet No not on your own yet Everyone is trying to get With no labor and no sweat A world of information Without wisdom foundation No magic way to see No map to follow and no street Find who you are and let it be Don’t stop the curiosity Don’t think about your position All you’ll find, an apparition Letters to Berlin What words will make a difference? I know you want to go and stand on your own Baby, slow your roll I can’t tell you where to go Stay out of the flow No choice will stop us spinning ‘round As you search the way from up to ground The whisper of that heart of yours Will carry you to all new shores So don’t think about your position All you’ll find, an apparition Letters to Berlin What words will make a difference? I know you want to go and stand on your own Baby, slow your roll Slow, slow, let that ego go, slow, slow, slow Letters to Berlin What words will make a difference? I know you want to go and stand on your own Baby, slow your roll

I’m a stained glass window Echoes of blue and darkest of red Looking into me, expect to see you Broken rainbow instead Nothing to reflect They can’t see the image Backlight moves, maybe mute I am nothing without the light I am nothing Stained glass windows See they don’t belong In this house of mirrors Though tiny as I am An eclipse to your plan Disrupt your house of mirrors Because I stand No reflection conjures fear It’s easier when you know what to expect Uncomfortable with nothing to reflect I am nothing without the light I am nothing I am nothing without the light I am nothing

Switchblade your hand, the side of my head Cultivate your movement to ensure silence But a jet lag romance leads to bad luck It’s a good chance that her soft words A pretense, lifestyle’s childish So where’s your halo now? Is it under your bed? Next to your gun? So where’s your halo now? Is it under your bed? Next to your gun? Next to your gun? Next to your gun? Fall back now You changed my life for the better For the better you killed me, for the better you killed my heart Changed my life for the better For the better you killed me, for the better you killed my heart Changed my life for the better Heart keep the tempo alive Because it’s slowing down And from what your telling me right now Is I’ll just pause and take a deep breath And everything will be just fine I guess I forgot because I was just Too busy thinking how to make you miserable I want to know that you’re alone, I want to know that thorn’s still in your side I want to know that you’re alone, I want to know that thorn’s still in your side I want to know that you’re alone {All this time spent with you has gotten me nowhere Fear that this day would come has turned to joy} Alone {has turned to joy}, alone I want to know that you’re alone, I want to know that thorn’s still in your side (You’re alright, it’s alright) I want to know that you’re alone I want to know that you’re alone, I want to know that thorn’s still in your side I want to know that you’re alone Alone, alone, alone
