lyrics

Breathe in and count to ten,
That was now and this is then.
The smell of red velvet, the taste of the tassel,
Getting that door open was always such a hassle.

Spirit guide by my side,
Departure directions on parchment paper.

This letting go was so hard to get to,
A new place to jump to, a new world to swim through.
Can't pop this bubble ya see I've got me plenty of space in front here,
Plasma betwixt my soul, a space to endure.

Spirit guide by my side,
Departure directions on parchment paper.

That time traveler tends a planet in the ether,
Keeper of the cold spring bubbling beneath her.
Just there to left, waiting in between, it seems.

Tall grass waves long in the distance,
Suggests this predates existence,
Never have I ever been, anything but love.

Jokes on you we traded paper for food,
Gotta sleep eight hours or it messes with my mood.
Drinking water from deep below the ground,
There's a time, there's a place, where sacred is found.

But it's not the place they told us it'd be,
it's not a place your money can buy.
There's no address, no number to call,
There's nowhere to go, but in love to fall.

Well if i don't subscribe to alternative facts,
I'm labeled left-centric conspiracy theorist.
I don't care if you believe in jesus christ,
I care if you live a loving and peaceful life.

But it's not the life they told us it'd be,
it's not a life your money can buy.
There's no address, no number to call,
There's nowhere to go, but in love to fall.

That time traveler tends a planet in the ether,
Keeper of the cold spring bubbling beneath her.
Just there to left, waiting in between, it seems.

Tall grass waves long in the distance, Suggests this predates existence, Never have I ever been, anything but love.
