Lyrics
CUT THE CORD
alan semerdjian
You look at the sky now and you see how it reminds you of that place
In your mind, another need to take you far away
And make some room for a constellation
Make some room for imagination
It?s there for you if you decide you want to make it stay
Cut the cord, mom, cut the cord
From the same old masks you?ve been wearing
Take it off
Cut the cord mom cut the cord
It?s a perfect storm and you?re in it
Let it go ? (all aboard)
You clean the messes of masses who don?t know your name
You sleep in fences and lock up all the stories in your head
In your mind are these slight suggestions
In your mind possible revelations
It?s a choice you?re making, another chance to flip the page
Cut the cord mom cut the cord
It?s not a mistake I?m singing, It?s your love
It?s a chord, mom, It?s a chord,
Lay your back into it, All aboard?
