Motion Of Ariel

Motion Of Ariel Lyrics

I can say what I want to say
I don't know if there will be time
Thought I spoke the unchangeable
Now I've seen it turn on a dime
We forget someone giving us confidence
When we were naive
Since it's mainly the confidence it took to leave

I can say what I want to say
Still I know you're going to suspect
All my reasons for speaking up
Long before the words have effect
Should I smile as you're standing apart,
As you make yourself a name
Or say that's how I think we all
End up the same?
I don't know what the radio wants when the radio taunts
I don't know what the radio wants when the radio taunts
Won't say where it's going
Just that it's our last chance not to be left behind

I don't know what walls to climb
My little one
To get away from the range of their high citadel
I don't know what songs keep time
My little one
So I will sing to the motion of Ariel

I can say what I want to say
I forget why I think it's true
Once the proof sounded obvious
Now it's seeming out of the blue
I could dole out the war-room advice
To the joint chiefs, cool and calm
I could ride my intentions like Slim on the bomb

I don't know what walls to climb
My little one
To get away from the range of their high citadel
I don't know what songs keep time
My little one
So I will sing to the motion it's going to take
To set you free Ariel
