lyrics

LOST BUT IN A FAMILIAR PLACE • LOST IT’S ONLY DESERT SAND • BUT THE VOLTURES ABOVE THEY ROAM THE SKY JUST TO EAT OF MY HEART • THEY REMIND ME OF A THOUSAND TIMES I WAS TORN APART •AND YET HERE THEY ARE • JUST A LOOK ASIDE TO KEEP THEM FROM SIGHT • BUT THE SNAKE CRAWLS BY AS BIG AS I • I MUST I MUST I MUST WAKE UP • ON MY OTHER SIDE THE TWILIGHT TRIBES • LIKE A SANDSTORM ARISE TO PAINT THE SKY • THEY COME AND THEY GO • BUT THEY NEVER LEAVE A WAY TO GO • SO DON’T YOU SEE YOU’RE ALREADY FREE • THE PRISON YOU SEE IS THE ONE YOU BELIEVE • FOR EVERY ACT AND EVERY THOUGHT • MAKES THE PATH GROW FONDER • OR STRIPS IT OF ALL OF ITS HOPES • AS I OPEN MY EYES I SEE THEM FEAST ON MY GUT • AND THE CHALLENGE RAPIDLY RISES • THERE IS NO WAY TO ESCAPE • THIS TIME WE’LL CHOP YOU TO PIECES • AS I TRY TO FIGURE IT OUT IF I’M ALIVE • BACK FROM THE MUD • BACK FROM THE GROUND • BACK FROM THE ROOTS OF THE EARTH • LUMINESCENT FIGURES THEY RISE • AND THEY RISE • AND THEY RISE • SO DON’T YOU SEE YOU’RE ALREADY FREE • THE PRISON YOU SEE IS THE ONE YOU BELIEVE • FOR EVERY ACT AND EVERY THOUGHT • MAKES THE PATH GROW FONDER • OR STRIPS IT OF ALL OF ITS HOPES • STRIP IT • STRIP IT • STRIP IT • SO NOW THAT I SEE I’M NOT THIS HAIR AND THIS SKIN • I AM THE SOUL THAT LIVES WITHIN
