lyrics

Hold your breath, this time we're going under I made motions in the sea that contradict the path I'm swimming

Broke the flow, create another pattern. And on and on it goes the river bends and another corner.

Sometimes I find myself being pulled into the water, for every hand that comes to save me 10 more would hold me under. And so you said you'd seek to calm your appetites and fall into an ocean that's a void of null excuses.

You may know me well but you don't know me that well I can do this by myself I'm alive and well

Somebody help me I'm drifting away

What did you think I was some kind of yogic David Blaine my heartbeat gone? I'm diving in to be with you. Well I'm only human, I can't help my flaws. To reach and touch it all at once - to give up control.

Decentralized net of nerves functioning without need of brain, heart or lungs

You may know me well but you don't know me that well I can do this by myself - I'm alive and well.

I might know this well, I can't do this by myself. Somewhere along the line I've undermined this tribe I'm born inside.

So glad to have discovered this great band. Heard first on the Thought Radio show last week. Great melodies over powerful Prog Rock with many beautiful moments. This is something special. I am getting a bit of a Rush type vibe but much more also. What an album this is and I will need to get the CD also. Too many great tracks to chose a best one yet. thirdsystem
