The One
We are now ready for take-off this wonderful evening
And I will now need your full attention
To simply avoid being in the passenger's seat on this journey
I ask you to understand how these chemicals originate and function
In order to take control of your own well-being
Stepping into the dust and smoke
The screams and noises drown me out
Screaming at the top of my lungs
But I'm just one, just one in the crowd
Bathing in the hollow light as I see my people fill the streets
I feel the rubble touch me underneath my feet
A slight intimidation, as friendly faces around me show
And a touch of hesitation, as I feel my fingers grip the stone
Tell me is there solace
For all that I am doing?
Now tell me are we lighter
From our sacrifices?
Now tell me are we flying
Just tell me are we heightened
Or is the ground just sinking?
The floor just caving in now?
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
The One
Remember that your brain got wired
From your individual past experiences
And the patterns and routes for every person are vastly different
Your mind built connections
And is now wired to turn on your brain chemicals
In the same ways they were activated in the past
While the gas burns inside
The liberation has begun
No claustrophobia, acrophobia
Watch the pieces come falling down while I raise
Oh so high
Tell me is there solace
For all that I am doing?
Now tell me are we lighter
From our sacrifices?
Now tell me are we flying
Just tell me are we heightened
Or is the ground just sinking?
The floor just caving in now?
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
The One
As we are now approaching our cruising altitude
We ask you to lean back to take a moment to reflect over this journey
Is how you get there really as important
As arriving and getting there in the first place?
Thank you for your attention
Tell me is there solace
For all that I am doing
Now tell me are we lighter
From our sacrifices
Now tell me are we flying
Just tell me are we heightened
Or is the ground just sinking?
The floor just caving in now
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
You're never gonna see me alive
You're never gonna leave me alive
