"Orestes" lyrics - A PERFECT CIRCLE

A PERFECT CIRCLE
"Orestes"
(Billy Howerdel / Maynard James Keenan)

Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me into your perfect circle
One womb, one shape, one resolve
Liberate this will to release us all

You gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you

And from pulling you down with me in here
I can almost hear you scream

One more medicated peaceful moment
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment
And I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility
I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility

You gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you

Snip away and sever this
Keeping me from killing you
