I start to revisit the place
You found me blocking out all the noise
[unholy whereabouts]
Giving in; XIII sins approach me
According to the memory I fail
But I could never deny

We're becoming well aware
Digesting this information
[if it’s what you advise]
Eyes that stare right through us
Wide and bright
A clinical chemical
Reconstruction of mind
If it's what you advise

If branches only stretch
As far as seasons allow
Could I strip away the old leaves
Plant feet into the ground
These roots won't run dry
We let them overflow
As if you and I knew where to go

It’s in the way you
Shape your indifference
I'll become the wind for you
Envelop and pursue
This won’t enfold the way it used to
[filling voids with senseless noise]

I felt the marvelous patterns of wind
As the siding bashed against the house
And woke all of the residents
I'm on the outside
Always on the outside
So scared of what may be out there
So I keep my foot between
The door and frame
Door and frame; I refrain
I can hear the others calling out my name
XIII sins; I commit
I walk in as if I never left the place

Tempt me with my XIII sins
And I’ll commit them quick
At least I have the upright standing courage to admit it

My imagination peaks
I love the thought of it
Mind-knot tied taught to it
Might as well talk to it
To see if it speaks

Perception, perception
It's all about perspective
Hold your thumb up to the stars
And block thousands of dimensions
But it’s been written in nature
Since first conceived
To be bright and ritualistic
To vibrantly fill all the gaps in between
There's never an exception
You must let yourself let go
When we arrive inside our minds
Arrive inside your mind

The tide is rising
Can’t you feel it?
Don’t grip too tight
I’m right by your side

It’s in the way you
Shape your indifference
I'll become the wind for you
Envelop and pursue
This won’t enfold the way it used to
