lyrics

There was an only one
Who held a flame so bright, I've run
Down the reaped fields
We saw standing peeled

The mask she wore,
Well, I removed mine --
With eye-slits too thin for wide-eyed
Trust in her brave
Words to enslave

Once you're even in the slightest sick,
You're alright.
Throughout three summers you've climbed
The heights of Mount Sinai

The man you were, reaching through much grime
To touch the same in her as you'd find
Within the heartbeat
Of every sowed field

Please say, why capture something
That you won't slay?
"You got away, did you not babe?"
Would you not stray?

Am I braving the cold winds,
A slave to my brain?
I must say, why capture something that
You would never slay?

"You got away, did you not babe?"
Would you not stray?
Am I braving the cold winds,
Slave to my brain?

I'm insane
