I forgot the world was always on my side
Too busy crawling
I forgot I knew how to fly
It's amazing
All the things I tried hide
Now surround me in a bigger, brighter light
The worries of the mind
And the pain we feel inside
Should never cease or break our lives
Take in stride
As the seasons come and go
We'll be faced with the unknown
Feel the words as they echo
All we're looking for is peace
A crowded mind is not defeat
Don't give up because you question everything
Truly thought it was just me
Can't you see that we're the same
Concerned and ashamed for the way we behave
Building walls to the sky just to wish they would cave in
Buried our truth so far in the ground
Now we're lost and concerned as we're searching around
All we're looking for is peace
A crowded mind is not defeat
Don't give up because you question everything
Truly thought it was just me
Can't you see that it's the same
There's something missing
There's something wrong
I can't see past my own eyes
Despite my good life
I know I'm lost but I can't say that I've tried
