So let it be retired, so let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be retired, so let it be done
To kill the firstborn pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Do you see what I see? Truth is an offense
Your silence for your confidence
Do you hear what I hear? Doors are slamming shut
Limit your imagination, keep you where they must
Do you feel what I feel? Bittering distress
Who decides what you express?
Do you take what I take? Endurance is the word
Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd
Looking at the world as it unfolds in front of me
I could never think to give a **** about a thing
It just makes me sick to think that I could even be
A part of this perverted earth we like to think is free
Baby, love never felt so good
And I'd doubt if it ever could
Not like you hold me, hold me
Oh baby, love never felt so fine
And I'd doubt if it's never mine
Not like you hold me, hold me
And the night is gonna be just fine
Gotta fly, gotta see
I can't wait, I can't take it
'Cause baby, every time I love you
In and out of my life, in and out baby
Tell me, if you really love me
It's in and out of my life, in and out baby
So baby, yes, love never felt so good
My feathered friend, your cage
must drive you to rage sometimes…
To think that you have aged
staring at nothing but beige walls
She says "you know, our lives
aren't so different as you would believe.
All are in prisons of some kind,
tethered by the stories that we weave."
I hear her song rising sweet and strong
and I'm lifted by the sound…
Living proof of a simple truth:
it's in the mind where freedom's found.
