It's like an intuition or a feeling in the air An intangible impression that's always everywhere You bit into the apple, laid down your sword an shield (Untie, a little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smile) Then spun 'round like a gyre in the unified field (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight a million miles) Oh, I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not It's an open invitation, come see the sights of sages We've been a pride of lions so afraid to leave our cages Don't fret over the pieces that smolder in the sun (Untie, a little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smile) 'Cause nothing can be broken when everything is one (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight a million miles) I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not You bit into the apple, laid down your sword an shield (Untie, a little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smile) Then spun 'round like a gyre in the unified field (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight a million miles) Oh, I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there?
