I walked through the valley with my music in hand
My eyes still closed
I sensed there was silence in the words that I spoke
Oh, you and I both
White light is an island in my mind
and it grows and grows and grows
Bright steel on the fortress of my life
and it’s so hard to know
Come with me, and I will show you where it lies
It’s like a pulse beat through a field of snow
and when the bass comes, you know
You’ve been sitting on the pendulum with your head hung
While a fire tries to rage
My heart becomes a brazen thing
My ventricles, like tentacles, attempt to mend my broken wings
I walked to the tower with my hands at my sides
My eyes still closed
Someone told me, "Hold your head up high. There is nothing to be afraid of."
The pendulum brought me to my knees, and I said,
“I dare you to keep me here.”
