At the moment of choice I faltered Now there needs to be a sacrifice At their altar But before I go Headfirst into the unknown I need you to see The true colors of me You knew I was sensitive To the threats in the cafeteria But do you realize We were all once bacteria? I'll take the blame For how I've made you hurt But is it my fault that I haven't evolved Past my time as a bug in the dirt? I know your heart burns And suicides need revenge They shouldn't reside next to the daily weather They should be mystically erected like Stonehenge I know you feel like all the pain Is on your side of the fence I'm just going with my gut here I'm just trying to make sense I have a feeling I met her once In a hostile, sterile place Don't remember what I said to her But in those walls, I let no one into my true head space I have birthmarks on my ears And when I was young, I stepped on a toad One could be a sign of something miraculous One could be a sign of a wicked, wretched road I know your people value the color red I know you protect those with wings But like Saint Augustine said, All birds have their origins in the sea I know you cast your spells While I say my prayers Magic and religion were once one Till divided on a truth or dare The soul of the world is nourished By happiness, sadness and envy Our desires came from the Universal Soul Even if they caused a frenzy Even though Lisa said it didn't matter I have one last thing to say before I'm done The soul of the one you love is everywhere around you Even if Earth is the third planet from the sun (ALL THINGS ARE ONE)

"Miss, I got what I really went for"
At the moment of choice I faltered Now there needs to be a sacrifice At their altar But before I go Headfirst into the unknown I need you to see The true colors of me You knew I was sensitive To the threats in the cafeteria But do you realize We were all once bacteria? I'll take the blame For how I've made you hurt But is it my fault that I haven't evolved Past my time as a bug in the dirt? I know your heart burns And suicides need revenge They shouldn't reside next to the daily weather They should be mystically erected like Stonehenge I know you feel like all the pain Is on your side of the fence I'm just going with my gut here I'm just trying to make sense I have a feeling I met her once In a hostile, sterile place Don't remember what I said to her But in those walls, I let no one into my true head space I have birthmarks on my ears And when I was young, I stepped on a toad One could be a sign of something miraculous One could be a sign of a wicked, wretched road I know your people value the color red I know you protect those with wings But like Saint Augustine said, All birds have their origins in the sea I know you cast your spells While I say my prayers Magic and religion were once one Till divided on a truth or dare The soul of the world is nourished By happiness, sadness and envy Our desires came from the Universal Soul Even if they caused a frenzy Even though Lisa said it didn't matter I have one last thing to say before I'm done The soul of the one you love is everywhere around you Even if Earth is the third planet from the sun (ALL THINGS ARE ONE)
