(intro-mellotron)
(mellotron-style flutes playing alternating root, third, and fifth tones in a drifting pattern, slightly detuned with tape flutter)

(chorus)
Let me drift past the walls of the mind,
where names fade out like mist in the blue.
Let me release what I once called “mine,”
and watch all boundaries undo.

(verse1)
Float as a leaf on a wandering stream,
free from the pull of right and wrong.
Soften the heart till it slips into dream,
where nothing fixed belongs.

(chorus)
Let me drift past the walls of the mind,
where names fade out like mist in the blue.
Let me release what I once called “mine,”
and watch all boundaries undo.

(verse2)
See how the bent limb survives the storm,
how “useless” trees outlive the field.
Forsake the forms that demand a norm,
move where no edges are sealed.

(chorus)
Let me drift past the walls of the mind,
where names fade out like mist in the blue.
Let me release what I once called “mine,”
and watch all boundaries undo.

(bridge)
Dream you are soaring,
dream you are stone.
Wake to discover
both dreams are your own.
Lose what you think you are,
and roam where all beings have flown.

(chorus)
Let me drift past the walls of the mind,
where names fade out like mist in the blue.
Let me release what I once called “mine,”
and watch all boundaries undo.

(ending)
(drum break with scattered fills, followed by tape-collage textures and reversed tape loops fading in and out)

(intro-mellotron)

(chorus)
心の壁を　すり抜けてゆこう
青い霧のように　名前が消えてゆく場所へ
「僕のもの」と呼んだものを　手放して
すべての境目が　ほどけてゆくのを見よう

(verse1)
流れゆく葉のように　ただ浮かんでゆこう
正しさも間違いも　僕を縛らない
心をやわらげ　夢の中へ溶けてゆけば
決められたものなど　何ひとつない

(verse2)
曲がった枝が　嵐を生き抜くのを見よう
「役立たず」と呼ばれた木が　野原より長く生きる
型を求める　決まりごとを捨てて
どこにも縁のない　世界へ歩いてゆこう

(bridge)
空を飛んでいると　夢を見て
石になったと　夢を見る
目覚めてみれば
どちらの夢も　僕らのもの
自分だと思っていたものを　失くして
すべてのものが飛んでいった　その場所を彷徨おう
