Cornered in the open air
Locked up in the sky
‘Freedom’ ‘s just another word
That’s leaning on a lie
Lured by the unchangeable
A leopard’s constant spot
Coaxing an anxiety
To release its’ grip on thought
Gripping joine by a hook and eye
Refuses to let go
Of a lifeline
In a salt mine
That’s full of pepper (say it again)
Take a look at the crooked truth of the Hook & Eye
Restraining and maintaining a feigned alibi
Take a look at the crooked truth of the Hook & Eye
Saving but enslaving like a favorite lie
What’s your favorite lie?
Stumble prone and swerving
Taking steps to be some stranger
Double back upon the track
At the slightest sign of danger
Wavering at each crossroad
Fear and fantasy collide
Digging for change is a guarantee
When time won’t choose a side
But flipping coins into the sky
To choose which way to go
At each stop sign
In this lifetime
Leaves you a leper (rotting away)
Let it go— At the end of your rope
Let it go-- Holding onto hope
Let it go— Round the corner, what’s in store?
Let it go— One battle is not the war
It’s not the war, one battle is not the war.
Take a look at the crooked truth of the Hook & Eye
Restraining and maintaining a feigned alibi
Saving but enslaving like a favorite lie
Take a look at the crooked truth of the hook & eye
Gripping joins the hook and eye
Flipping coins into the sky
Gripping joins the hook and eye
Flipping coins into the sky
