Sanctuary

It started with walking long distances

Desperate for a line in the sand

It started with walking long distances

But then I licked my fingers

And I couldn't see the outline of my own hand

I know I'm supposed to have a sense of self by now

But what if the knowledge of where you came from

Of what you come from kills the self?

Kills the self, should kill the self?

I know who I am

I know who I am

I don't believe in it, though, I don't believe in a self that survives time

I'm gonna stay low and slow and let go of the climb

I know who I am

I don't believe in it, though, I don't believe in a self that survives time

You are not the weight you carry

Clip the strings and float away

She looked me straight in the lion's mane

Live inside a sanctuary

On the street built in his image, in his name

Lose yourself to find your way

I know who I am

We are not the weight we carry

I'm so high

Meet yourself where night meets day

I don't need to climb anymore, I'm so high

Live inside a sanctuary

Nowhere else to go, I'm so high

Lose yourself to find your way

Ah, this is where you sing your own gospel

This is where you sing yourself into existence

Speak the truth so loud it bursts into a cloud of infinity

And dissipates into the air

And now it's just the breathing air

So you don't have to bear it anymore

Explode into the air

And land safely on the melty-pelty ground

Dirt for the future

We are not the weight we carry

Clip the strings and float away

Nowhere else to go, I'm so high

Live inside a sanctuary

Lose yourself to find your way

We are not the weight we carry

I'm so high

Meet yourself where night meets day

All the way on top, I'm so high

Live inside a sanctuary

Yeah, I'm lost, so what?

Lose yourself to find your way

I'm so high

We are not the weight we carry

Clip the strings and float away

Live inside a sanctuary

Lose yourself to find your way
