What can you do when you find yourself in a box?
Ain't got no sides, no doors and no locks
You can't escape from a trap that you can't see
If nothing is holding you back, does that makes you free?
Jailer, toss me the keys before my fingers go numb
And my toes start to freeze
I wanna dance in the breeze like an animal man
I wanna swim in the seas, I wanna roll in the sand
If I can't get away I'd better learn how to fly
But I'll never escape if I just keep on asking why

The Mountains Call
04:27
|
|||
|
Once there was an old dirt road that washed away when it rained
It froze up every time it snowed and had to be remade
But the mountains call
The people who had lived up there found a way to love the land
Animals and trees everywhere, wherever you could stand
The water and the air were pure and made you think that you could be
One with everything around, everything you see
And the mountains call, the mountains call
I found a place to be myself and live with everything I know
Found the strength to be my own in spite of all the rain and snow
'Cause the mountains call, the mountains call

Far Away

|

|
Far away and way behind
Far ahead and deep inside
Don't need a bed, only bring your mind
In the dancing branches hear the stormy song tonight
In the dark and in the light
In the day and in the night
It ain't just a gift, you know that it's your right
In between the pieces there's got to be some glue
And just because it's out of your reaches doesn't mean it can't be true

Rainy Day
03:50
|
|||
|
The rain cam down at the break dawn
I looked out my front window, see a strange dog on my front lawn
Only way I know how to carry on is playing that same old song
And the puddles on the street, they fill up my shoes
It doesn't matter which street I choose
I've got those rainy day morning blues
And my brain is howling, think I might have got a bruise
I left my umbrella in a closet back at home
Where I wish I had a guard dog, mouth running over with foam
And I know it's gonna be raining no matter where I roam

Periphery
02:50
|
|||
|
I can see anything in front of me
And to the side in m periphery
But I can't see anything in back me
Got forward eyes, it's behind me
But if I turn around I think I'll find what was behind
Just keep moving forward, never straight
I'm looking for that gate, looking for that gate
You can be anything you want to be
Just keep an eye on the periphery
You can know anything you ought to know
If you just go to where the water flows
But If I turn around I think I'll find what was behind
Just keep moving forward, never straight
Look out for that gate, don't worry if you're late
With blinders on, the tunnel's straight ahead
You have your way so stick with that instead
But if you take them off you'll see so much more that is there
You'll have to look and make your own repair
But if you turn around I think you'll find what was behind
A misstep can be traced if you just look at where your foot fell
I hope it goes well

Echo Chamber

I only read news that I want to hear
Echo, echo
Don't care if it's wrong or laden with fear
Echo, echo
We're in an echo chamber
We like the sound of our echo chamber
Nobody wants to know what's really going on
Echo, echo
Just click or comment, do it all on your phone
Echo, echo
We're in an echo chamber
We like the sound of our echo chamber
So I just telly friends what they want to hear
Echo, echo
'Cause they don't like to disagree and they've made it quite clear
Echo, echo
We're in an echo chamber
We like the sound of our echo

Hourglass Castles
03:36
|
|||
|
I see the soldiers in their lines all just waiting for their times
And I feel the suffering of everybody who's there
And I can feel the air
I see the women in tassels and I see theme as they walk by
And I see their hourglass castles
They drop like rain
Grain by grain
I watch the concrete underneath cracking, begging for relief
And I wander all around the square
And I can feel the air
I see the women in tassels and I see theme as they walk by
And I see their hourglass castles
They drop like rain
Grain by grain
