Inside Four Walls - Mystery Jets

I was born in the room where I wrote this song

Within the same four walls, twenty years on

Time to make a new step but take another fall

Do I learn what is right by wrong, doing it all?

I found a place of bone

I felt strangely at home

Where the grass turned to sand

And the steeples became domes

I lay myself down in the shadow of a tree

Served by a toothless waiter who sang to me for free

I listen to the voices

The voices say to me, yeah

Untie all your spaces

And in a single bow you’ll be free

White light when I depart

But it’s clear on my return

Some steps have been taken

But there’s a lot left to learn, a lot left to learn

They built these walls to keep me safe

But now they need it no longer

And I could see their mistakes, I could see their mistakes

I listen to the voices

The voices say to me, yeah

Untie all your traces

And in a single bow you’ll be free

And in a single bow you’ll be free

In a single bow you’ll be free

In a single bow you’ll be free

In a single bow

A single bow you’ll be free
