Through Our Veins

I'm getting back to the basic
I'm getting back down to what's real
Spent all these years trying to get it just right
Now I'm spinning my wheels still

I want to love without limits
Want my hear to grow too big for its cage
Life is as short as a song
And as fragile as a bright blue robin's egg

Oh now the rain, it falls hard on my tin roof and it washes me away
It feeds me into the river that runs through our veins

I watch the trees hear the melody
Of the music of this beautiful sphere
I think that they want to break free and dance
But they can't, they're too rooted in fears

See life's gonna throw you some punches
But only for those who love free
The open heart is most subject to wound
But only the open heart sees

Oh now the rain, it falls hard on my tin roof and it washes me away
It feeds me into the river that runs through our veins

I will rise up in the morning and my fears will fade with the night

Oh the rain, it falls hard on my tin roof and it washes me away
It feeds me into the river that runs through our veins

All of these hopes shouting out at me, they are a human thing
And they're speaking to me with a voice
They're washing me like a fountain
They feed me into the river that runs through our veins
