Orestes Lyrics

A Perfect Circle

Metaphor for the mystic moment
Pull me in to your perfect circle

One womb
One shape
One resolve

Liberate this will
To release us all

Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you

And from pulling you down with me
in here
I can almost hear you scream

One more medicated peaceful moment
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment

Yeah I don't wanna feel this overwhelming
hostility
Don't wanna feel this overwhelming
hostility

Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue

Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you

Snip away and sever this
Keeping me from killing you
