Once Where We Walked
Reclaiming Control: A Journey Beyond Self-Righteousness
Lyrics
Mentally drained from our old archaic ways of keeping us in line
Mentally drained from traditional and outdated methods of control.
The weight of the problems of our world are creeping in on me
Feeling the burden of global issues affecting me.
Replenish your drugged sins as judgment day seems so far away
Indulging in vices while the consequences seem distant.
Self-righteous path is not one to take for the weary traveler
Avoiding a self-righteous and rigid path that isn't suitable for a tired traveler.
So I reach back and pull
Taking action, reaching back, and pulling something.
Won't you rock that and roll
Encouraging someone to embrace a rocking and rolling attitude.
Back to a place a place
Returning to a place of total significance.
Of total
Emphasizing a state of complete control.
And complete control
Continuing the theme of total and complete control.
Exhaling smoke, a burning planet
Describing a planet in distress with smoke and fire.
Suffocation of my lungs
Experiencing the suffocation of one's own existence.
Preoccupied by her light blue eyes
Being captivated by the distraction of someone's blue eyes.
Run your game of deceit
Engaging in a deceptive game played by someone.
Take my drag to hide the pain that they give to me
Using substances to cope with the pain inflicted by others.
Self-righteous path is not one to take for the weary traveler
Reiterating the warning against a self-righteous path.
I reach back and pull
Repeating the action of reaching back and pulling.
Won't you rock that and roll
Encouraging a dynamic and carefree attitude.
Back to a place a place
Returning to a place of total significance.
Of total
Emphasizing a state of complete control.
And complete control
Continuing the theme of total and complete control.
And I can't
Expressing inability to think clearly.
Think of thought
Repetition of the difficulty in coherent thought.
Won't you come back
Inviting someone to return for the purpose of tearing apart.
So I can tear it back apart
Expressing a desire to dismantle something upon return.
And I can't
Reiterating the difficulty in clear thinking.
Think of thought
Repetition of the challenge in coherent thought.
Won't you come back
Inviting someone to return for the purpose of tearing apart.
So I can tear it back apart
Expressing a desire to dismantle something upon return.
Come I need it
Expressing a need for something to come.
Now I want you
Expressing a strong desire for something.
Come I want you now
Repetition of the strong desire for something now.
I feel the sharpened blow when you're not around
Feeling the impact of the absence of someone.
Self-righteous path is not one to take for the weary traveler
Reiterating the warning against a self-righteous path.
I Reach back and pull
Repeating the action of reaching back and pulling.
Won't you rock that and roll
Encouraging a dynamic and carefree attitude.
Back to a place a place
Returning to a place of total significance.
Of total and complete control
Emphasizing a state of complete control.
