Forty-Six and 2
by
Tool



Join in my
Join in my child and listen
I'm digging through
My old numb shadow

My shadow is shedding skin
I've been picking scabs again
I'm down digging through
My old muscles looking for a clue

I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been
I've been wallowing in my own confused
And insecure delusions

For a piece to cross me over
Or a world to guide me in
I wanna feel the changes coming down
I wanna know what I've been hiding

In my shadow, my shadow
Changes coming through my shadow
My shadow is shedding skin
I've been picking my scabs again

Join in my child
Join in my child as
My shadow moves
Closer to me now

I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could have been
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic
Insecure delusions

I wanna feel the change consume me
Feel the outside turning in
I wanna feel the metamorphosis
And the cleansing I've endured

In my shadow, my shadow
Changes coming
Now is my time

Listen to my muscle memory
Contemplate what I've been clinging to
Forty six and two ahead of me

I choose to live and to grow
Take and give and to move
Learn and love and to cry
Kill and die and to be
Paranoid and to lie
Hate and fear and to do
What it takes to move through

I choose to live and to lie
Kill and give and to die
Learn and love and to do
What it takes to step through

See my shadow changing
Stretching up and over me
soften this old armor
Hoping I can clear the way

By stepping through my shadow
Coming out the other side
Step into the shadow
Forty six and two are just ahead of me
