I’ve starved my days I’ve drowned my nights I’ve run campaigns against the light I’ve been the liar I’ve lit the fire Died down, I’ve shrunk back from the fight
I’ve got this feelin' This suspicion This conviction Something’s shiftin And I’m liftin up my feet to take the step I’m ready now!
To let myself change colors with the leaves Let the wind come shake me down! Deliver me closer to the ground I made a promise to the moon.
Now, outside this window I see all the other boxes Box-shaped drivers Box-shaped cars Those little box-shaped lives that I could live
I know the shape of this room I know these walls, I know this tune I know I’m stalling and I’m gonna turn the page So show me how!
I can weave my way into a tight cocoon Then let it push me inside out! I’ve made a vow, I’ve made a pledge, I’ve made a pact I’ve made a promise to the moon!
