lyrics

I cannot align my insides
with the stimuli of my outer-life
no, I don’t have an alibi
still not brave enough to wave goodbye

I’m held down, it’s so physical
I’m waiting for a miracle
my soul is trying to overflow
but my body wants to be in control

and move me
so freely

what is life, and why must I ask?
when I know that this too shall pass
find myself caught in dreams of past
and my mind-made future eludes my grasp

and craves more
I need more
to complete me
completely

when I saw you I was split in two
never would I will, never would I do
when I saw you it had all come true
I guess I would- I will, I do

pull the devil out of my spine
reclaim this body of mine
pull the devil out of my spine
sin tips the scales of balance inside
