lyrics

I used to run wild
Free with the wolves
Now I’m spreading eagle feathers
High from the lows
Soaring into blue skies
Up from below

My engine been down
Dipped in molasses
I used to burn rubber
Now I’m kicking off the ashes
My transmission won’t let me below
Three or four, five times a day

I’m raising vibrations
Flying through constellations
Reflecting all thoughts
Speared in my direction
There’s no fire that burns
Without wood to kindle the flame

These new shoes feel good
No gum underneath
Sticking me like stucco
To the thoughts I grieve
This moment is the only moment I need
This moment is the only moment
I will forever and ever revel in

I’m going to learn from the inside out
I’m through with drinking poison
From the adrenaline spout
I’ve followed through conclusion
To illusion beware
I’m jumping off this self-destructive locomotive
Leading me nowhere, I’m nowhere
I am only lost to come around

I’m going to learn from everyone before me
Who wrestled with demons
Tried to shake free
Who went six feet below before their time
It seems that artificial stimuli
Is nothing more than a bore
A glorified white lie
