Let Go 04:23
You Love more than you're allowed, that's your crime. Can't you feel how it's sliding round your mind? You're trying to find a way to live right. It's not simple when your sinful ideas come alive, and feel so nice. Let go, let us all let go. There's a man who's trying to break the chains, his keys were lost a long time ago, that doesn't seem to sway him though. He knows what's waiting on the other side, more of the same, he's hating this game but has no choice, he's gotta play. It's the way that it goes, till you pick the right road you have to stay. Let go, let us all let go. Some of them tell you there is no hope. Some of us say there is no need. We can be caught up in the ecstasy of breathing, we can teach you ways. If the world we are in gets under your skin, let's get away. Let go, let us all let go.

Draw the line so you can cross it, always pushing your own luck. When the haze of being people fades, all we wanna do is love. Let's admit we've got our dark sides, and we'll make their introductions. And I bet they'll find a common dialect and proceed with our corruption. Here' I go, I'm losing my mind again. I can't help but see developing a sticky situation, you've got me thinking. So I'm a keep on moving in this dance we're doing. I know it's stupid but you're proving to be quite on the ball. And baby when I'm with you I'm not thinking about dancing at all. Here' I go, I'm losing my mind again. I can't help but see developing a sticky situation, you've got me thinking.

Muse 04:05
You're aware that I'm aware, anytime you're anywhere near me. All my senses highten there, static purgatory. Like an insect, I want to inspect every tiny line of you, follow all of your tattoos like freeways. But it's not your surfaces that activate my soul, I feel like I was made to serenade you. As your muse, I'd let you use me as you need. Anything to spend the time inside your mind. I will be a force of nature in your corner, bring you all I can and lay it at your feet. I am strong but I admit, I'm a hypocrite, because by your side I'm happy to be weak.

Big Shot 05:02
I went out in the afternoon, and walked down to that rundown place I met you. All the while I'm considering the ground, and the cracks run to the door, and underneath the boards. You have it your way, you're a big shot now. When you're through adding credits to your name, will you come back down? And later as I skipped along, while trying to stay somewhere on track, you were there with satisfaction, as I struggled, you leaned back. You have it your way, you're a big shot now. When you're through adding letters to your name, will you come back down? How will you know, when you've got it all?

I would like to exercise my right to grow, I can't just sit here getting stale, I need to go. It's not that I don't love you babe, I don't want to seem cold, but the way I move is fluid and it seems like you want something you can mold. We did our best, and it was lovely for a while but honey, it was never you, and I am trying to be kind, but I've got to speak my mind honey it was never you. So I'll start the most unpleasant of extractions, and you'll argue until you're red in the face, and you're losing sleep cause you can't see that this is not what you believed I shouldn't be here in the first place. You have made so many plans, but I don't like where I fit in, so I'll wash away your drawings in the sand, and then like the tide I'm rushin out again. We did our best and it was lovely for awhile but honey, it was never you, and I am trying to be kind, but I've got to speak my mind honey, it was never you.
