Take away my inhibitions
Take away my solitude
Fire me up with your resistance
Mm put me in the mood
Storm the walls around
this prison
Leave the inmates
Free the guards
Deal me up another future
from some brand new
deck of cards
Take the chip off
of my shoulder
Smooth out all the lines
Take me out among the
rustling pines
'Til it shines
Oh 'til it shines
Like an echo down a canyon
Never comin' back as clear
Lately I just judge the distance
Not the words I hear
I've been too long
on these islands
I've been far too long alone
I've been too long
without summer
In this winter home
Still if we can make the effort
If we take the time
Maybe we can
leave this much behind
'Til it shines
Mm 'til it shines
See the rich man
lost and lonely
Watch him as he dines
Sitting there just
testing all the wines
'Til it shines
Mm 'til it shines
'Til it shines
Oh 'til it shines
'Til it shines
Oo oo oo
