Lyrics:
My head is pounding, my mouth is dry
My eyes are burning, I want to see it ??
Headless idol, blank mirage
Holy holy, tension turned me inside out
Inside out, inside out

Fear, oh fear, please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man reaching for me now
Fear, oh fear, please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man reaching for me now
(Please don't pull me down)

I want release from absolution
I want release from
I want release
I want release

Terrible angels, infant sorrows
Tired horses, they will walk with me again
I can hear them, oh I can hear them
My ancestor, my protector, my tormentor
Am I not alone, am I not alone?
Am I not alone?

Fear, oh fear, please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man reaching for me now
Fear, oh fear, please don't pull me down
It's just a drowning man reaching for me now

I want release from absolution
Benediction, good intentions
Blue black flowers, poisoned wine
Planets smashing, annihilate the sense of things
I am born into these waking hours
Change change change
