"Two Figures" lyrics

"Two Figures"

I didn't want to let you in
I had a notion I can't win
But there's a long forgotten room
That was shuttered much too soon

And it's your nature to persist
And you find no one can resist
Well, I may prove you wrong
Even though you didn't miss

Don't you want me
To be, to be
All you want me
Everything you want me to be?
Don't you want me
To be, to be
All you want me
Everything you want me to be?

So your people came before
Made murals on the floor
Colored tiles and polished stone
And weapons made of bone

Well, I fought you when you tried
To fix me with your eyes
Shoot your arrows at my chest
Ah, but you know all the rest

Don't you want me
To be, to be
All you want me
Everything you want me to be

And out in the wilderness
Out in the wilderness
With turquoise colored breath
My shadow out of step
Out in the wilderness
Out in the wilderness
While searching for something left
Felt something in my chest

Don't you want me
To be, to be
All you want me
Everything you want me to be
Don't you want me
To be, to be
All you want me
Everything you want me to be...

Reflections on the tiles
Two figures moving wild
I don't believe it
Do you believe it?
