[Verse 1] Mercury's in retrograde Don't believe a thing I say You know I don't believe that stuff My mind's only made of dust The echo always said get real Mostly I just go by feel Kick it first if it don't start Don't need tools I got my heart [Chorus] Are we free or afraid Of what we're told Are we out of or under Control [Verse 2] When Saturn returns I begin To trust in patterns more than men Or the stories that they tell Even when they tell them well The echo always sounded good
Until I finally understood I only had to open the door Now I don't trust the echo anymore [Chorus] Are we free or afraid Of what we're told Are we out of or under Control [Verse 3] All these planets pulling me around They pulled my face into a frown Even though my minds made up My mind's only made of dust From stars and clouds and oceans all unseen From stars and clouds and oceans all unseen [Chorus] Are we free or afraid Of what we're told Are we out of or under Control
