	I ~~was~~ so ~~high,~~ I ~~stood for an hour outside~~ the ~~Christian Science Reading Room~~<br>		I wanna win a costume prize just so I can look you in the eyes<br>
	and ~~suddenly I could not resist and I became a Christian Scientist~~<br>		and you'll finally see me as really 'someone'<br>
	and ~~I studied light and I studied sound~~<br>		and not just as another heart that's always busy being broken<br>
	~~and every question that~~ I ~~asked was suddenly profound~~<br>		but I know the only costume prize I'll win<br>
	The ~~holy martyrs of gravity - the absolute measure of being free~~		is if I go as The Invisible Man

	~~I was so high~~ that ~~I even scared~~ the ~~cat~~<br>		You could be a whispering ghost that floats like spilt milk<br>
	~~and using~~ the ~~language~~ of ~~his tail,~~<br>		You could be a rubber frown that only knows how to bend<br>
	~~he said he had~~ a ~~vision~~ - a ~~thousand white flags flying over my hat~~<br>		You could be one of the faces of the sirens that delight<br>
	~~and then he hid~~ under ~~the~~ bed ~~- and his eyes were big~~ as ~~bells~~<br>		in pulling hope from the lips of those who can't afford to pretend<br>
	and ~~suddenly he could not resist and he became a Christian Scientist~~<br>		You play dress-up but you always wear the same clothes<br>
	~~and together we explored our world~~<br>		and I feel like a fool if I try and strike a pose<br>
	~~and found it became more beautiful as it unfurled~~		and I already have a brilliant disguise -<br>
			I wanna shine a light in your eyes

			You spent so much time trying to find a mask so ugly that<br>
			no one would ever ask about your life story<br>
			The one that you put in under my bed<br>
			before you decided you'd be happy living as one of the living dead<br>
			The enemy takes many different forms<br>
			and some wanna thrill you with his charms<br>
			but I don't wanna wear no scary disguise<br>
			I wanna shine a light in your eyes

==Lyrics==
I was so high, I stood for an hour outside the Christian Science Reading Room 
and suddenly I could not resist and I became a Christian Scientist 
and I studied light and I studied sound 
and every question that I asked was suddenly profound 
The holy martyrs of gravity - the absolute measure of being free

I was so high that I even scared the cat 
and using the language of his tail, 
he said he had a vision - a thousand white flags flying over my hat 
and then he hid under the bed - and his eyes were big as bells 
and suddenly he could not resist and he became a Christian Scientist 
and together we explored our world 
and found it became more beautiful as it unfurled
