lyrics

The siren song of pastures new
leaves me cold to the ties of distant pasts.
The siren song of pastures new,
instigator of this spiralling decline.

The heart is yearning to be free,
from the chains of this private apocalypse.
The mind is struggling to hold on,
equivocating doubt and reason.
Fear,
nurture,
conspire to turn light into darkness,
assembly-lined barrage of excuses seal this grave of mediocrity.

The siren song of pastures new
leaves me cold to the ties of distant pasts.
The siren song of pastures new,
instigator of this spiralling decline.

Reject the alarmist within,
shed this misanthropic skin.
Audacious,
emphatic,
escape this corporate prison,
it's not unthinkable.

Things don’t have to be so complicated.
Spread my wings,
take me where the wind blows.

Siren song of pastures new...
instigator of this spiralling decline.
