lyrics

I heard she moved to Wisconsin, to hole the winter away
Painting and living in an anarchist colony,
closer to the Brahman than I’ve ever been

And I know that she’s wiser than most will ever be,
and when I see her, I realize how truly we’re all free

She dropped out of college to pursue happiness –
to learn instead while hitchhiking across the Midwest
Knowing knowledge isn’t tangible – it’s all around us
Absorb it with your petals, like the sun, like a kiss

And she knows that money simply won’t suffice,
that there’s so much more that cannot be diminished with a price

She was the first from Vermillion to discover my wings
With Molly – both of them could sense metaphysical things
For logic can only get one oh so far,
but Sheridan looks past it to see things just as they are

She rekindled my faith in magic,
and she’s helped me to see what’s important
And I don’t know if I’ll ever see her again
That would’ve used to bother me, but now it’s different

For now I know that whichever ways we go,
there’s pieces of me with her imprint
And I know that she’s wiser than most will ever be,
and when I see her, I realize how truly we’re all free
