It spits you out when you desire
You know the way it goes about
"Hold the secret close", I hear you say
You pour yourself over me
Like the sun through the blinds
It's okay, it goes this way
You lift me up and get me out
You know the way it leaves you dry

With mistakes that you do mean
Move the heart, switch the pace
To conquer it, to feel you're higher
You know the way it goes about
Move the heart, switch the pace
It takes you in and spits you out
With mistakes that you do mean

Cuts you up, cuts you up, cuts you up
Through the zero hour I will walk
Cut the thick and break the thin

It cuts you up and takes you high
It takes you in and spits you out
No sound to break, no moment clear

To follow it you must be clean
Calling like a distant wind

Look for what seems out of place
It spits you out when you desire
On and on it goes
Changing color, spinning yarns
The line is thin, it twists away

Is it honey? Is it gold?
Look for what seems out of place
You know the way it goes about
Cuts you up and spits you out

Cuts you up, cuts you up

To conquer it, to feel you're higher

Crashing hard into the secret wind
To follow it you must be clean
Keeps you walking but never shout
You know the way it twists and turns
It takes you in and spits you out
Keep me walking but never shout
When all the doubts are crystal clear
You know the way it's painted gold
