Symphony
Telekinesis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I awoke and my heart it did choke on the scene that was set in our bed
Was it a dream or are you just a scheme
I don't care I'm alive and I'm well
You are my love and you are above any women that I've ever met
I do believe that we are machines and we search till our parts intersect
Now I know that there's so much more that I didn't get to say
All my life for once I was right and and I'll make it all better again
But now I rest
Now I can hear what was once loud and clear is a symphony heard overhead
You are the notes coming out of my throat like I'm breathing a book that you read
All the bells and orchestra swells are filling the holes in our heads




Big kettle drums and violin strums will play like a sort of a hymn
When we are wed
