Be Released -

I saw a photograph from the past

It showed your family tree all red and gold

It showed your place of birth

And all the colours blurred

Like chalk on a blackboard

And now that you look

It all seems so far away

It’s further than it seems

Progress is slow

But it will be easier, it’s easier now to say

«I'm home, four doors and all the furniture I own-

Dissolved, I chose to be released from all of this»

It’s funny how quickly you forget

And how the smallest of details remain

Flawless and bright

Like the curtains hanging loose

And open in the room

Or your first class when you went to school

And you were last to arrive

You asked your friends for advice

But nothing they said could reach so deep

Or even describe the moment you felt

All alone in your mind

It was the first of five years now —

You’re free of all those places

Tell me: where do you go from here?

And now that you look

It all seems so far away

It’s further than it seems

Progress is slow

It will be easier, it’s easier now to say

«I'm home, four doors and all the furniture I own —

Dissolved, I chose to be released from all of this»

You found a story for yourself

Built from a dream

Removed all inheritance and debt

From here there’s nowhere else

And now that you look

It all seems so far away

It’s further than it seems

Progress is slow

It will be easier, it’s easier now to say

«I'm home, four doors and all the furniture I own —

Dissolved, I chose to be released from all of this»

Four doors

A shelf

A wall

Windows

Chairs

Carpets

And stairs
