Imprisoned in the fortress of industry
Glass hamster wheels
With glass plated seals
Pacing endless space station corridors
Some day I will know
What it is to be released
Some day I will know
What it is to be released
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of malice-handed minds
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
I wish I could just ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
There is an edge bot
Without seams in the doors
I am digging up a mountain
I cannot see
There are blue waves and white sand from the tip
The visitors land, but there is no top
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of malice-handed minds
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
I wish I could just ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
I will be released
I have been told I will see it
But I can’t see it now
I know not whether I ever will
Some other sand has emptied out
And all I want is to be released
All I want
Is to be
released
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of malice-handed minds
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
I wish I could just ask you
When will I be free?
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of malice-handed minds
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
I wish I could just ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
I
will
be
I
will
be
The harrow is tightening, and
The mountains are beyond the lightning
I wish I could call you
And ask you, “what should I do?”
Your morphine eye
It wanted to speak
Your morphine eye
It could still hear our conversations
And it fought the mountain of sleep
It left us there to fight and weep
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of malice-handed minds
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
I wish I could ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
I will be released
I did not know that you were waiting
You could have told me
I wouldn’t listen
This protection is a sickness
No freedom that can live within it
So many things
I have come to regret
I will live them all
until the judgement
It can drive me to madness
I’ve no nest, or no net
Oh, but I have you!
And we will be released together
Before this is all through
And here by myself
Reading the cumulus and cirrus peaks
I wish you could tell me,
“You are now free”
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
Oh, how I wish I could just ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
I leaned too hard on the big machines
And it’s too late to get on the lean
I need to keep my mind in the clear,
and let it dream
I pray to be with friends
For the next arraignment
They’re all I have left in the face of containment
On Sundays, I’m surrounded by those that I love
I wish those days would never end
And right now
This minute
This second
And the second that just passed
I am just fine
In the presence
Of all of those who are kind
And here by myself
With america on my sleeve
Oh lord, how I wish I could ask you
When will I be free?
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
I will be released
