Well she cut herself loose   Wasn’t it you who always said   Freedom’s an excuse   To run around without your head      If she knew what you meant   She would’ve held it up to the light   But she felt that you were wrong   And by then she knew that she was right      Well you can never undo what somebody’s already done   You just   Hold onto your breath   End up where you started from      And the truth just fades   And flickers off the edge of the plane   So new words emerge   To fill the vacuum with its remains      Well I can feel a laugh approaching   Followed by clumsy tears   But somehow it ain’t so funny now   That they’re shacking up here      And you know the punchline is still to come   So you best   Hold onto your breath   And end up where you started from      So you throw down   To what shines and what reflects   And all your dream encounters   They’re all lazy rips and dead flesh   You gave up on the one thing   That terrorized you   But she wasn’t ashamed or embarrassed   How can you change directions?   How can you believe again?   Don’t follow the rats into the ocean      Hold onto your breath   And end up where you started   Hold onto your breath   And end up where you started   Hold onto your breath   And end up where you started from
