[[INTRO: ACOUSTIC GUITAR INSTRUMENTAL]] [[VERSE 2: SUBDUED, REFLECTIVE]] I don’t understand your need to be strong I’m not getting what you’re trying to tell Don’t keep me at the length of your arm Is there some secret you need to reveal? [[VERSE 2: SUBDUED, REFLECTIVE]] You said, “I’m not good for anyone.” Depending on the day, I might agree. I think you are addicted to chaos What if setting you free sets me free? [[PRE-CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL: SUBTLE ORGAN, ACOUSTIC GUITAR, QUIET ELECTRIC GUITAR]] [[CHORUS 1: opens up melodically and harmonically.]] We are spiders in each other’s silk Trapped in the web of the other Your parlor is filling up with people You've been preying on all your lovers. [[VERSE 3: SUBDUED, REFLECTIVE]] The fly in the ink is that I love you. If not for that, we would both be free. Open your arms or close the door (open your arms or close the door) Can you close your eyes and see only me? [[CHORUS: modestly more full than CHORUS 1]] We are spiders in each other’s silk Trapped in the web of the other Your parlor is filling up with people Cuz you've been preying on all of your lovers. [[BRIDGE: add layers rather than dramatic dynamic shifts.]] Set me free; I’ll set you free. Set me free; I’ll set you free. Set me free; I’ll set you free. Set me free; I’ll set you free. Can we set each other free? Can we set each other free tonight? [[CHORUS: quietly emotional while transitioning smoothly and quietly to a fading outro]] We are spiders in each other’s silk Trapped in the web of the other This parlor is full of people (no room to move) (no room to breathe) (no room to add one more) (no room to look each other in the eye) Cuz you've been preying on all of your lovers. [[OUTRO: outro returns to core groove fading with a reflective tone]] I'm the chaos you’re addicted to So clear to you, but not to me. So clear to you, but not to me. Set me free; I will set you free. Set me free; I will set you free. Let's set each other free
