lyrics

how our own breath has been passed on by others who've lived
dachshunds and hunting hounds track by the fear that you give
and the will not to die so strong by the ones on the hill

split by our differences not blood or color of eyes
stuck on the tangles when combing your hair left to right
never is perfect but always the chance to improve

so let one be different or let them the chance to decide
for all to be open and letting the knots be untied
still compromised by the will of others and time

so let down the flooding gates let fall the ash from the sky
holding the teeth in place marionetes and white lies
the biggest distraction of all is the worrying mind

like flies are drawn to light chance to see without the sun
feeding a parasite how many more til its done
light from the inside will only be lessoned
light from the inside will only be lessoned
