Up and down, back and forward
Rattle the cage, to wake my mother
From black and white dreams, and colorful spells
Into a different set of rooms where we don't belong
A serpent arrives, from out of the depths
Heading for the sun, looking into my eyes

Illuminate me so I may see the light
Eliminate me so I cease to long for anything
Illuminate me so I can tell whats right
Eliminate me so I come to know myself

I better run- before you touch me
Tripping over my own feet I - break open my head
Black and white flowers and colorful insects
Emerge from the wound too many to contain them
Footsteps in the sand - lead out through a gate
Onto a winding path in between two towers

Illuminate me so I may see the light
Eliminate me so I won't remember anything
Illuminate me so I can sense whats right
Eliminate me so I come to forget myself

Illuminate me, eliminate me
Illuminate me, eliminate me

A dose of confusion - to bridge the gap
Building a ship within a bottle
Filled with black and white fears and colorful hopes
Afloat on an ocean-in search of meaning
Right here right now, death defeats life
Questioning my love for everything around me

Illuminate me so I may see the light
Eliminate me so I lose everything
Illuminate me so I can feel whats right
Eliminate me so I find whats left of myself

Illuminate me, eliminate me
Illuminate me, eliminate me
Illuminate me, eliminate me
Illuminate me, eliminate me
