Severed Hand lyrics

Big man stands behind an open door

Said, "leave your lady on the cement floor."

"Got some kicks, wanna take a ride?"

I said, "Yeah..."

"Take your pick, leave yourself behind."

I said "Yeah..."

I've no fear but for falling down

So look out below, I am falling now

Oh please understand, I just need my friend

A way home

Tried to walk, found a severed hand

Recognized it by the wedding band

"It's okay, do you want some more?"

I said, "Yeah..."

"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4..."

I said, "Yeah..."

"Understand, I'm not falling down"

I said, "Look around, the room's taller now..."

I can't close my eyes, cause I see the sound

In waves

In waves, lets me stay calm

If I don't lose control

Explore and not explode

A preternatural other plane

With the power to maintain

Like a tear in all we know

Once dissolved, we are free to grow

"What is human?... What is more?"

I'll answer this

When I get home
