| “ | Coming down off the long trip now. It's almost over people. There is still one more vista to reach, one last dive into the deep. Pistons start to sputter, the wings start to sag, nose points straight down. The window to my heart is opened up with lysergic acid and strychnine. Alchemy pries open now what a crowbar cannot.

Lyrics[edit | edit source]
window paine around my heart
shadow stream around my heart
do what you're gonna do
and say what you're gonna say
do what you're gonna do
yeah, start today
start today
wind blows shame around my heart
shadows scream around my heart
what are you coming to?
stripped down to the bone
life ain't living on your own
all alone
do what you're gonna do
and say what you're gonna say
do what you're gonna do
yeah, start today
start today
