Lyrics

Fresh air soft landing
So good to be home
This bruised world's got its beauty
It's where I belong

The sight of those green curves
Quickens my heart
Break the grip of leviathan
Now I'm ready to start

Have I been away too long
Have I been away too long
Have I been away too long
I just can't wait

Saw big smoke umbrella
Blue lights up close
Exploiters of psyche
Stealing the code

I imagine completeness
No spin cycle deceit
Time and tide keep on rolling
Now the world's at my feet
