lyrics

I had a taste, but now I've sated that taste
I gotta move, not here where I'd never save face
Up at the seminary with my X-rated beauty
I spent life inside out

I'm centripetal, many worlds many shells
I curl up position fetal and begin to be myself
I'm at the cemetery where this music's been moving me
And I spin away from the crowd

Don't you lie to me - I might just fall apart
So few are the words I seek - don't rip me up
And everything's alright in this movie
With every single part starring me

Don't wanna bleed, don't wanna fall
But it doesn't matter at all
Then we just proceed, evolve, it could happen to us all too often
See, it's so bright and so loud
Yeah, pick me up

And don't you lie to me - I might just fall apart
So few are the words I seek - don't rip me up
And everything's alright with every little part

And there before I first saw you I'd given up hope but for a single bit
A little bit of soul to keep me alive
It's what was keeping me hopeful
And 27 times I pleaded till the ringing in my head scared me
I thought of love and the first time I'd seen it
Saw the truth there and what it meant for me
And I said I've never made it so far

Hold on tight, dear
It's invisible but it's right here
I said that life is gonna be what you make it, darling
So come feel the rhythm...

I escaped before they buried me
I learned to hum with the music and the melody
I said now come feel the rhythm
Come feel the rhythm of my heart

You got to hold on like everyone else
You got to say a little prayer and reach into yourself
It's just you owe a little time to me

There's never been a better time
