lyrics

There's this way I've got to work:
By believing our productions are why we exist.
And ropes and rails are necessary tools
To keep us doing stuff we have to.

So, so many days, I betray
How my bones want a wandering
Down, down I have ground the wing of me
That has stuck close to wondering

If I'll become the rails
Or if I'll choose to bail.

I've been learning that my work
Is better when my pieces can speak as they please.
But ropes and rails still seem necessary
When acting on volition still seems scary.

So -- though, many days, I betrayed
How my bones wanted wandering --
Down, now, I allow the wing of me
That has stuck close to wondering

If I'll become the rails
It helps me choose to bail.
