"kites" lyrics

"kites"

Cover me up
No one can see my flaws
And they're gone
All you need is the image that you applaud

How far can I take you?
What lengths do you go to?
We want you just as you are without soul
Now won't you?

With a stick in my mouth, tied by my wrists I will stand
You can go really far
Would be true, if I was born a man
Your truth lies within you
I see the fire in you

Tie me loose
Before I self-ignite
Waste my youth
Chasing after kites

Cover my ears so I can hear my thoughts
They swirl off the ground, got me raging like I am the flood
May the waters of awareness
Wash off all this valiance
All that remains for the world to possess is an escape
