[Verse 1]
If I were to stretch myself out
Really work and stretch myself out
(Inside and out)
I stretch out my ego and stretch out my mind
(My space and my time)
I stretch out my organs and stretch out my skin
My strength and my fears
My toes to my ears
(My virtue's my sin)
I stretch me out across the city
My eyes roll out into the suburbs
My boyhood is a fountain that flows through drought
I reach for the mountain when I stretch myself out

[Chorus]
Stretch it out
Feel it out
Time is in and space is out

Black it out
All throughout
Hit the top to bottom out

Stretch it out
To figure out
There could never be a doubt
Reward in time
Always, always
[Verse 2]
Behind my heart, over the hill
There's a small house where you live still
It once was our home
(My blood and my bone)
But now you're there alone
'Cause my feet had to walk
And they carry my hands and my lips and my thought
My kidney and liver
Drain to the river
My clock's counting down in the center of town

[Chorus]
Stretch it out
Feel it out
Time is in and space is out

Black it out
All throughout
Hit the top to bottom out

Stretch it out
To figure out
There could never be a doubt
Reward in time
Always, always
[Bridge]
I can't say what I think in my mind
But I let you climb the curtains
Only to tear everything down
And now you stand before me
With your wide open eyes
So I take the light from my draw
Could you know what I saw?
But oil runs thick and quick
Stretch it out
Draw it out
Reward in time
There's no doubt
Stretch it out
Feel it out

[Chorus]
Stretch it out
Feel it out
Time is in and space is out

Black it out
All throughout
Hit the top to bottom out

Stretch it out
To figure out
There could never be a doubt
Reward in time
Always, always
