restraint & release

hey!

did the killer in your body

the intruder in our union

kill your rage?

where's your sense of adventure?

has the power and the danger been restrained?

i'm not asking you for answers

i'm not asking of you things that we can't change

but you brave and burdened starlet

i am asking you to shock yourself awake

cause the soul

it will not cater to our reason

nor the passing of the seasons in our wake

i'm not buying what they're selling

i'm not taking what they're throwing in my face

so don't shut me out again

so don't shut me out again

so don't shut me out again

hey!

i'm not ending in no contest

i'm not bending nor will i equivocate

unlike weaker of our genus

we evolve from every terrible mistake

how can't you see?

can't you see me take off my winter clothes?

those bastards fear us radicals the most

cause the soul will not cater to our reason

nor the passing of the seasons in our wake

i'm not buying what they're selling

i'm not taking what they're throwing in our face

so don't shut me out again

so don't shut me out again
