Lyrics
I don’t know what I was thinking
Reaching out beyond my grasp
Lifting up these wings to try to take to the sky
As if I wasn’t bound to this fifty-ton past
Don’t know what I thought would happen
I don’t know who I thought I was
I get going when I see so much open space in front of me
But I don’t get too far because
The tether pulls me back
The tether always pulls me back
I thought I should let you know that
You’ll be seeing me around
Trying to let go of anything I might be dragging with me
As I make my way back down
And for a little while I had a little leeway
I took my time like taking a drug
Running wild pretending I didn’t know that I was always heading
For the moment when I’d feel the tug
Of the tether pulling me back
The tether pulls me back
The tether always pulls me back
I can feel it now
I can feel it even now
