Orestes (Alternate Lyrics)

A Perfect Circle

4

Picture a parish in a playground

Innocent faces in a circle

Tiny hands hold round the edges

A fret for every gentle moment

My heart high above their heads

On a billowing diaphram of memories

And i struggle to catch a glimpse of you

But i'm bound by webs of habit

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

No, I 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...
