Softspoken Realign Lyrics

If our hearts can send
Lines of consciousness to every limb
Telling it to be still
Or act on an impulse
How do we maintain integrity in our lives?
Keep me free from toxic ways

I can trace the lines
To that place in time
When you redefined
What was yours and mine
And what it meant to realign
You be sure to keep your distance
Make space enough to leave me out
I'll try hard to keep my head out of the clouds

Falling from these heights
Grabbing every branch on the way down
Can't expect the light
Hiding in the shade of heavy limbs
Living in the dark, so egocentric
Keep me free from toxic ways

I can trace the lines
To that place in time
When you redefined
What was yours and mine
And what it meant to realign
You be sure to keep your distance Make space enough to leave me out
I'll try hard to keep my head out of the clouds

When the lines degrade
Do our bodies curve to match?
A crooked back for a crooked heart
Shallow breaths to break apart
Overreactive with no passion
Just branches on a tree

Might as well be
Dead and diseased
Corrupted, not free
I prefer a cage
Bars to mold my growth to their shape
Keep me free from my toxic ways

I can trace the lines
To that place in time
When you redefined
What was yours and mine
And what it meant to realign
You be sure to keep your distance
Make space enough to leave me out
I'll try hard to keep my head out of the clouds

Might as well be
Dead and diseased
Corrupted, not free
