Why Extraordinary Claims Demand Extraordinary Proof

from I Am Almost Another Person When My Eyes Are Open by That Dream Was Our Life

lyrics

When you're desperate you can draw lines between anything & anyone
Different signs pull you in a different direction
North, west, south, east
What road will lead you to freedom

What does it take to loosen your chains
You're an arrow's flight & a heartbeat away

Your beautiful hands cupped over your face
Timeless eyes peeking through the space between your fingers
You like to pretend that you're invisible but it only puts you out of reach
You're not the only one who feels that way

What does it take to loosen your chains
You're an arrow's flight & a heartbeat away

We're not who we were a year ago, five years ago or even fifteen years ago
And I don't want to grow more bitter as I grow older
You could always kill me but you still thrill me
I'd give you everything if you would only stay

What does it take to loosen your chains
You're an arrow's flight & a heartbeat away
What does it take to make you feel safe
You're a thousand years & a million miles away
