lyrics

You look insane
In your straight jacket
No surprise
You picked a fight that you couldn’t win
Go ahead knock yourself out
Look for the key
But it’s the door that’s broken
A mystery that we can’t let go

The search for new heights
For the unknown
It’s not set in stone

A bird that’s born in a cage
Thinks it’s a sickness to want to fly
But it’s a line
And once we cross there’s no return
And it could be the only way to save yourself
The only way to save yourself

And I won’t sell you anything that you don’t need
That’s a lie just look inside yourself
And I can’t tell you everything you want to hear
Now I’m dying
Already turning into dust
