The most dangerous criminal I've ever known has grown up sentenced to life serving time inside a maximum security prison that I call my rib cage. From age nothing until now he has somehow managed to escape a total number of time and time again. Which if I took the time to add up would equal every instance between now and then. This is what happens when heart turns escape artist. When heart refuses to let missed moments multiply themselves into a monumental waste until all that remains of the fraction of a life. This is heart as Harry Houdini gently reminding me that as I child I planted bricks into the ground and grew walls. I once upon a time loved to chase rainbows so learned how to cry waterfalls. From behind these bars I've heard the lovers issuing recalls on all the \" I love you\"s they ever said but never meant. And if you ever promised me forever I'm still here wondering where the time went. You've had me put away, locked up, locked down, living underground, prison bound, and I never made a sound 'til now. You won't keep me here for long. You won't keep me here for long. Your plan keeps holdin' me down, I will soon be found, I will soon be found. Your plan keeps holdin' me down, I will soon be found, I will soon be found. These memories and others like them stem from giving away my today and having no tomorrows. My yesterday's wear halos because they died when I was sentenced to life for killing time. It once seemed sane that I once wished I was born with out a rib cage so that my heart would be free to love you completely. On the inside I am collecting the sharp looks you shot to me. Through bars and bulletproof glass, through mass media and miss information, I am enrolling my lips in the higher education needed to speak your name with the same urgency we heard when we set off fire alarms and Richter scales. In both prisons and jails I have sat in my cell passing the time of a life sentence by casting shadow puppets of doubt. I have collected the sharp looks you shot to me. They're what I've using to tunnel out. Like a line from a the great actor my key has got a secret fracture, any minute I'll escape my capture. You won't keep me here for long. Your plan keeps holdin' me down, I will soon be found, I will soon be found...
