Beginner (feat. David Binney)

The paper prison I have sheltered From my vision live long days Is crowding my imagination I call my gambler just to bargain Down the numbers of my game Its black and white and red all over Learnin' to begin again Steppin' out against the grain I'm burstin' vessels with my stresses Subway trestles save my silence From the bloody violins and cellos New York City's so loud how now Can I listen to my muse When she hums the truth out of tune Outside my window We're learnin' to begin again Steppin' out against the grain Touchin' down from Middle Eden in our prime Searchin' for some meaning in our time Spent my adult life pretending I was an oak tree now I know I'm nothin' more than a flame Now that I got it all out of my system I wonder who am I And who are you my love We're learnin' to begin again Steppin' out against the grain Touchin' down from middle eden in our prime Searchin' for some meaning in our time
