Song Description

Bruce produced "Pull a Houdini" as a music video analogizing the dramatic near death and rebirth portrayal in Houdini's "Chinese Water Torture Chamber" with Bruce's water-based Spiral Violet 1, with which Bruce pulled a literal Houdini to heal himself from Vioxx-induced congestive heart failure.

Lyrics

When you feel you're breaking,
Reaching out for anything you'll find,
There is no mistaking,
Something's coming soon to ease your mind,

If you haven't sensed it by now,
Run away from here,
Where you can wallow in your fear,
But if you feel the time is right now,
Step inside the box,
Pick all the shackles and the locks,

Refrain:

Pull a Houdini,
You know it's meant to be,
Only a wounded heart would ever heal you,
Pull a Houdini,
Set the captives free,
Realize the magic they're believe you,
Pull a Houdini,
Set your spirit free,
Ooooooooh,
Pull a Houdini,
Set your spirit free,
-
You're facing fire and ice,
Sharp daggers threaten Eden's paradise,
But when you realize,
Your burden is the key to free the skies,

If the heavens opened right now,
Far away from here,
Harbingers comets in the clear,
The water's rising crossing the bow,
Step outside the box,
Applause stopping all the clocks,

Refrain:

Pull a Houdini...
