Soma

My chains fell off, my heart was free!
I rose, went forth, and followed thee

After twenty-two years in shadow, it's not wondering the light hurts your eyes
Green and blue are just the same
Make up your mind, your mind's eye

You wouldn't eat your baby; you wouldn't wear her hide
But you kill her just the same to keep her from your life, your mind's eye
Things are not what they look like, this might be in your head
We might be in your bedroom, we might all end up dead
What if all of your best friends could see the thoughts in your brain?
If they saw it through your eyes, could they still love you the same?

We could find the fount of youth and all the things you wanted to
It's never going to be
If I had a chance to bring back all my dead family
They'd still find something wrong with me
The cure for all the pain in me is hanging from an ancient tree
But what if he's not enough?
What if everything is ending, just like someone said to me?
You can't hide from the end
(If all we need is love, then why's that not enough?)

Open up your mind's eye
Shut tight your mouth
Open up your mind wide
Lock the door on your doubt

Driving back home from the bar with my thoughts soaked in alcohol-
I couldn't feel a thing
Why'd you save my life that night, when dying's all to make it right?
You took all my misdeeds and handed my life back to me

Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, would die for me?
