Trial by flight and trial by fire
Such tempting invitations take me higher and higher
The cauldron is boiling
And there's a message in the scent, says:
"Get your act together, you're the next ingredient,"
So don't tell me that it's pointless
That my voice won't be heard
Don't tell me "grin and bear it"
'Cause I know that that's absurd
Don't tell me that it's risky and that I might get hurt
Don't tell me what is pointless
Goodbye, big blue skies
The eclipse of this moment feels like a sigh
I'm having second thoughts
Because this road isn't easy
But I can't just sit there and let it go by
I could be a joker and you could be a thief
We could speak of our intentions
But we both know talk is cheap
Don't tell me where you go to
When you close your eyes
Don't tell me where you go to
Just take me there this time
Oh, one time
Oh, take me there one time before I say
Goodbye
Oh, I have roots and branches
Encased within my ribs
With one deep inhalation
I could draw you in
Will you build yourself a condo
Right next to my heart
Where you can come to visit
While we are
Apart?
