Do the ritual Do the ritual Because it’s always been like that Gotta keep it all intact Let’s do the ritual into the night Let’s do the ritual Do the ritual We’re gonna miss another day Any time I hear you say Let’s do the ritual into the night Every day I feel a little more lonely I get a feeling like it’s starting to own me It brings me love, then it gives me fire It brings me down, then it lifts me higher It lifts me higher.. Do the ritual Do the ritual It doesn’t matter what you know It doesn’t matter where you go We’ll do the ritual into the night Let’s do the ritual And every time I feel you slipping away I wish that there was something more I could say And now you think that I’m one of the liars And how I hide my true desire My true desire Every day I feel a little more lonely I get a feeling like it’s starting to own me It brings me love, then it gives me fire It brings me down, then it lifts me higher It lifts me higher..

I heard you moved to California I hear the weather there is so fine I wish I took the chance to make you mine I know you'd stand by me rain or shine You got there from north Carolina I really hope your folks are doing fine You've always understood these thoughts of mine I wish I could've had a little more time You're off in California The winter comes and I still feel this way I wish that I could hold ya But There is nothing I can do or say You're off in California I know that it must be your calling I've heard it all so many times before No it's not something that you should ignore I guess I'm wishing we were something more You've been away too long You're off in California I hear your echo when I feel this way I wish that I could hold ya But there is nothing I can do or say You're off in California California

Been up for days now My mind is still in a haze Waiting to see you Sitting around in a daze And then you appear With feathers in your hair I must be dreaming Or am I just more aware? Then something hits me I don't know where I am now Or how I got there I scream out "please show me how To get back to the place where I was" Your words paint echoes Or have I just lost my head? It seems you linger Across the depths of the dead And when you haunt me Is it supernatural? Or are you only in my mind? You're talkin in your native tongue I feel I'm your native young You've got me shaking in my skin Now that I am one of your kin I just can't take it The walls are closing in The ground it trembles As you get under my skin A silent heartbeat Is pounding through my chest I try to escape it As I realize that it's a test The reasons unclear Why have I seen it this way? But now I know it The answer's clear as the day You're talkin in your native tongue I feel I'm your native young You've got me shaking in my skin Now that I am one of your kin
