Tunnels, Pt. 2

(album: EPHRATA - 2017)

I thought I knew a way out, new a way out
Of these tunnels carved under a mountain of doubt
Like the roots of a trembling giant
But I'm too far gone, gone too far

I hurried home along the empty motorway
The dimmest stars strewn along an airport runway
Now in the cold white glow the neurons are fired
Endless patterns formed, your heart is hot wired

Used to wait all night, wait all night
Just to catch a glimpse of something we'd never seen before
Now I don't know where the wires end and my veins begin
God help me I've seen everything!

I thought I knew a way out, new a way out
Of these tunnels carved under a mountain of doubt
Like the roots of a trembling giant
But I'm too far gone, gone too far

Wade into the night, under the mud
I'm sinking down, don't let me go, just let me go
Until it binds
