Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing So hypnotizing I am captivated, I am Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself So clear like the diamond in your ring Cut to mirror your intention Oversized and overwhelmed The shine of which has caught my eye And rendered me So isolated So motivated I am certain now that I am Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself So turn up the corners of your lips Part them and feel my fingertips Trace the moment fall forever Defense is paper thin Just one touch and I'll be in Too deep now to ever swim against the current So let me slip away, so let me slip away So let me slip away, so let me slip against the current So let me slip away, so let me slip away So let me slip away, so let me slip away Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself Slight hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption

On an endless day of everlasting winter No sound nor sign to break the void None to turn the wheel around A frozen and forgotten piece of time Buried out there in the cold Below the blasted soil Lies the future to behold Preserved to be destroyed A forgotten piece of past Beneath the frozen void To hopeless to outlast Preserved to be destroyed In a storm of ice cold shivers At a point below, at a point unknown A thousand winds of coldness roar The path lies underneath forevermore

I fell below From fast to slow My mind began to flow Into the Sea of Imagery Trying to ignore the pollution I reached the warm and verdant field Where I can feel secure I felt you leave before I lost control And I solved it in mysterious ways I saw the World of power! (Inside out!) And I saw the silence! (Unified!) I saw the clouds of fire! (Passing by!) Getting out of control! (Delusions in the sky!) Flew above and once again Reality's betrayed As the waitress stands up through the cottonwood wall And served another piece of the sky This time I thought I was the lamb Hiding from the wolf I ran through the woods of darkness past Then I ended up on the lam There I was surrounded! (In the dark!) I can hear the Alpha! (Calling out!) I felt the breeze of fire! (Passing by!) Getting out of control! (Delusions in the sky!) (Cute mini-solo) The scream of power rushing out I saw the judgement come about Then I remembered I was just a babe I drove right into the dream And took my treatment to extreme Always keep an eye out for the ground

I'm pledging all to nothing, the dreams are fading out Into reverberation, lend me silence, lend me time Don't let the sun come shining, don't let the day begin The night is ringing out, thrown outside to cast about I put my faith in fire, now ash is all I got I've played out all my cards, fired off my final shot I have my way of dreaming, illusions in the sky I set myself ablaze, riding in a constant haze Blessed and burned, left unturned Blessed dream, turning into steam Gotta ride it out, gotta let it go Gotta get it off my back, gotta get up on the track Gotta ride it out, gotta let it go Soaring under heavy skies I'm pledging all to nothing, the dreams are fading out Into reverberation, lend me silence, lend me time Don't let the sun come shining, don't let the day begin I've played out all my cards, can't seem to get it off my back Blessed and burned, left unturned Blessed dream, turning into steam Gotta ride it out, gotta let it go Gotta get it off my back, gotta get up on the track Gotta ride it out, gotta let it go Soaring under heavy skies

I walked the misty meadows late at night I wasn't back until the morning light They called me from the underground And walked me down I couldn't stop and turn around Walked me under I woke from restless slumber with a sense of fright As the fog came crawling to invite Without a sense of doubt I walked right out Into a mesmerizing walkabout They called me from the underground And walked me down I coudln't stop and turn around Walked me down Voices from the underground Walked me down In their choir I was bound Walked me under A mystic moon was lighting up the sky I felt the spirits force me to comply And when their choir was calling to invite I walked the misty meadows late at night

Ghouls they are calling, they're acting out Displaying figures and they scream and shout I don't know why, I don't know what they say It makes no differance anyway Without any conclusion I'm burning papers without any solution Point it out and make a point within Let it all begin Because I'm on the run - I gotta get away When all is said and done - there ain't no way I stay I've got to get it all out - it's time to get ahead With no loose ends our doubts - there ain't no way I stay No matter what I do I'm heading off, away from truth Counting hours and collecting speed I'ts time to take heed
