Bitter Pills

Unaware of the model
I was taught to follow
Baptised through the grapevine
Rescued by a daydream back down where I found the open door

The open door
I was before
The open door

And from the maps that I followed
Came the thoughts that I'd borrowed
A bitter pill I swallowed cleaned my mind out so I could explore

Plagiarised our reactions
All my life an extraction
But if I'm more than memories,
Makes me wonder who I was before?

I was before
The open door
I was before

I know what I am
In this light I stand
Can I overcome the space that time demands?
Reincarnation, now back from everywhere
Know that I'll become the thoughts that lead me there

Turned my back on the drama
And ostracised my karma
I threw away all my armour
Trying to find out who I was before

I know what I am
In this light I stand
Can I overcome the time that space demands?
Reincarnation, I can't remember who I was
Who I was
