Alright

LawrenceOrbach wrote:You can’t hide the lies
In the rings of a tree
If your heart still beats free
Keep it for yourself

When you want to run
And leave some part unrevealed
Like the flight of the bee
Keep it for yourself

It’s alright to be alone
To listen for a heartbeat
It’s your own
It’s alright to quiet up
To disappear in thin air
It’s your own

Should your living truth die
Could be an acid trip
Leave the eucharist whole
Keep it for yourself

If you tire of the game
Hit the road towards the clouds
Find the groove in the sound
Keep it for yourself

It’s alright to say no
Be a disappointment in your own home
It’s alright to turn it off
Ignore the rules of the state
It’s your own

It’s alright to shut it down
Disappear in thin air
It’s your home
It’s alright to be alone
To listen for a heartbeat
It’s your own

You can't hide your eyes

Well, this song will take some getting used too. That's different. Not in a bad way or anything, but nothing like this in recent years.

My favorite lyric is "DM me, alright? / DM me, alright?"
'Hold me close,' cooed the dove, who was stuffed now with sawdust and diamonds. - Joanna Newsom

My thoughts exactly on my first listen, although my excitement for it is growing as it plays...
