beast in air, beast in water

you and me

we're both the same

given a chance you'd wanna be free

aside from food and sleep

i know we can find time to teach the old ways to the young

and keep our story

the sand feels like we're walking on balloons

the air is stairs

our eyes are bright

you said i still feel queasy after you woke me up

as our fire begins to roar

i cannot help this feeling

i've seen this all before

but something's different

tell me that you came for me

'cause i've been waiting for you

tell me you can hear what i'm saying

'cause it's a long walk back to town

and i'm a far cry from the old me

i recall your sense of urgency

when you heard of this place

you knew neither crevice nor hole

could conceal you like you'd planned

and you can paint your face here

any color you'd like

'cause there's a divide between this world i found

and the weariness of our old one

tell me that you came for me

'cause i've been waiting for you

tell me you can hear what i'm saying

'cause it's a long walk back to town

and i'm a far cry from the old me

tell me that you came for me

'cause i've been waiting for you

tell me you can hear what i'm saying

'cause it's a long walk back to town

and i'm a far cry from the old me

tell me that you long for me

that you share all of my troubles

you get all the voices in my head are yelling

and my friends can't hear a thing

and i'm a far cry from the old me

your secret's safe with me
