I was born in the room where I wrote this song Within the same four walls, twenty years on Time to make a new step but take another fall Do I learn what is right by wrong, doing it all? I found a place of bone I felt strangely at home Where the grass turned to sand And the steeples became domes I lay myself down in the shadow of a tree Served by a toothless waiter who sang to me for free I listen to the voices The voices say to me, yeah Untie all your spaces And in a single bow you'll be free White light when I depart But it's clear on my return Some steps have been taken But there's a lot left to learn, a lot left to learn They built these walls to keep me safe But now they need it no longer And I could see their mistakes, I could see their mistakes I listen to the voices The voices say to me, yeah Untie all your traces And in a single bow you'll be free And in a single bow you'll be free In a single bow you'll be free In a single bow you'll be free In a single bow A single bow you'll be free
