I find myself in a big city prison

Time: 2:32
The linguist across the seas and the oceans
A permanent itinerant is what I've chosen
I find myself in a big city prison

Time: 1:08
We were just kids
Just limited, misfit, itinerant
Outcasts singing about the dissonance

Time: 0:15
I'm a surrogate
I'm archetypal and itinerant
I'm your excuse to long for a superior

Time: 1:14
Lookin' good like you should you're bad
An itinerant dimension mystic is your spirit see
Like color absolute bodiless indeed

Time: 2:39
To act like God forgiving sin then to talk like that to me
This itinerant from Nazareth in backwards Galilee
But instead I sat and trembled, shaken to the core
