I have chosen my choice.
I am not looking back, no
demons I will slay, with my sword
that I haven't wielded
I'm not ready
that is a lie
my delay is my conscience
teetering on the edge
of fear in my background
I am delaying the inevitable
singing like a child on this ode to indolence.
I have come from the ocean
unto the ocean I will go
I have belief in my greatness.
it doesn't mean I'm greater than you
everyone is great.
everyone's a light, waiting --
to explode.
every night I cry and I smile and I say
hey, hey, hey
hey, hey, hey
pause. take it easy
let the words come out naturally
shake with the silence
dance with the devil
you have your own two feet
don't have fear.
I'm talking to you
and "you" is unknown
you could be me or you could be you
song is a way to last forever
ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
grace
why did you save me?
bound by this gratitude
and freedom I owe.
I'm gladly serving, to your will
my mind is just a filter for the choices I owe
hanging by a thread
and I'm shaking in the balance
got to find a way to get across this crevice
dancing on the tightrope with a thing called hope
I have belief that this is the way I go
hey, hey, hey
take me in,
as I am
or send me away
to a far away land
I don't care about fitting in
cause I am me
Amen.
hey, hey, hey
unto the ocean I will go
unto the ocean I will go
unto the ocean I will go
unto the ocean I will go...
