Orestes
Billy Howerdel / Maynard James Keenan
Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me into your perfect circle
One womb, one shame, one resolve
Liberate this will to release us all
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and severe this umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you
And from pulling you down with me 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
Don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility
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
