Orestes (Live at Red Rocks)
[Verse 1]
Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me in to your perfect circle
One womb, one shape, one resolve
Liberate this will to release us all
[Chorus]
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you
[Bridge]
And from pulling you down with me, here
I can almost hear you scream
One more medicated peaceful moment
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment
I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility
I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility
[Chorus]
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this umbilical residue
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you
[Outro]
Keep me from killing you
Snip away and sever this
Keeping me from killing you
