Lessons for Mutants
Wanna hear what's in my head?
Holy spirits hovering over my bed
Colors blurring into pure white
Warm hands return me to the light
Made the journey, safe and sound
Bury my yearning in the ground, I am learning
He just called to say he still don't know
Try the new way, love him and let him go
The sweetness of surrender
Is real love, I must remember
Saw behind the rage to your pain
At a tender age, burgundy as a bloodstain
And I forgive you, your circumstance
Lord knows it's not my life to live anymore
And I cannot afford to take the chance, I'd go overboard
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
Now free of yesterday
All my stories flicker and fade away
Into dust, revealing
Not who I thought was
Layers peeling, ancient feeling
Borne from our mothers' bloodlust
Rebuilding trust, ask me anything
Or tell me if you must
(You, who thought you knew me back when)
(Watch the fire burn through me, I'm born again)
(And should you ever be fully realized)
(Come find me, join in the revelries of butterflies)
Holy spirits hovering over my bed
Colors blurring into pure white
Warm hands return me to the light
Made the journey, safe and sound
Bury my yearning in the ground, I am learning
He just called to say he still don't know
Try the new way, love him and let him go
The sweetness of surrender
Is real love, I must remember
Saw behind the rage to your pain
At a tender age, burgundy as a bloodstain
And I forgive you, your circumstance
Lord knows it's not my life to live anymore
And I cannot afford to take the chance, I'd go overboard
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
Now free of yesterday
All my stories flicker and fade away
Into dust, revealing
Not who I thought was
Layers peeling, ancient feeling
Borne from our mothers' bloodlust
Rebuilding trust, ask me anything
Or tell me if you must
(You, who thought you knew me back when)
(Watch the fire burn through me, I'm born again)
(And should you ever be fully realized)
(Come find me, join in the revelries of butterflies)
