Walking in the street 
Breath the only friend
Strangers pass me by
I'm moving, moving with the wind 
Inside me now, the gold
The gold at rainbow's end
Stranger to myself, a stranger 
Stranger till the end 
Behind the closed door 
The one we painted green
To remind me of the perfect plan

Wash my face in fields of green 
Take me to the stars for free
Point me to the high wire call 
Wake me true and wake me all

Walk me in the streets 
Take me, to a view on high 
To an empire state 
Tease, tease and bake me dry 
Swerve and turn on me
Melt me, melt me to the wall
Like an unspent fortune, I'm running 
Running with the call
Behind the closed door
The one we painted green 
To remind me of a perfect plan 

Wash my face 
In fields of green 
Take me to the stars for free
Point me to the high wire call 
Wake me true and wake me all
