Well she cut herself loose Wasn't it you who always said Freedom's an excuse To run around without your head If she knew what you meant She would've held it up to the light But she felt that you were wrong And by then she knew that she was right Well you can never undo what somebody's already done You just Hold onto your breath End up where you started from And the truth just fades And flickers off the edge of the plane So new words emerge To fill the vacuum with its remains Well I can feel a laugh approaching Followed by clumsy tears But somehow it ain't so funny now That they're shacking up here
And you know the punchline is still to come So you best Hold onto your breath And end up where you started from So you throw down To what shines and what reflects And all your dream encounters They're all lazy rips and dead flesh You gave up on the one thing That terrorized you But she wasn't ashamed or embarra**ed How can you change directions? How can you believe again? Don't follow the rats into the ocean Hold onto your breath And end up where you started Hold onto your breath And end up where you started Hold onto your breath And end up where you started from
