Break
[Verse]
Cut the ropes, let me go like a stone in a free fall
Down below where all the wild things are stealing stars
I've been dreaming of the ways through all the haze and the danger
Dancing with the bitter truth
That I'm a prisoner through all the same hesitations
Only I can break me loose
[Chorus]
I've had my right hand up all of my life
I hear my heartbeat out to know I'm alive
Tell me, am I the only one who's paralyzed and I'm holding the knife, oh
They say I'm too far gonе waiting for light
I keep the sutures on and pray for a sign
Tell mе am I the only one who's paralyzed and I'm holding the knife, the knife
[Drop]
(I've had my right hand up)
Right, right—
[Chorus]
I've had my right hand up all of my life
I hear my heartbeat out to know I'm alive
Tell me, am I the only one who's paralyzed and I'm holding the knife, oh
They say I'm too far gone waiting for light
I keep the sutures on and pray for a sign
Tell me am I the only one who's paralyzed and I'm holding the knife, the knife
[Drop]
I've had my right hand up
Tell me, am I the only one who's paralyzed and I'm holding the knife
[Outro]
The good smoke
Carved my name in the shade as the windows
Keep falling in the darkness
Still chasing firelight with all my ghosts—
