Open Air

A voice out in the distance
The whistle of a signal on the waves
A lifetime in an instant
Flowers bloom upon untended graves

The spinning of the engines
The clatter of the wheels upon the tracks
A twist in all the endings
The price to pay for seeing through the cracks

Breathe in...

I want to breathe the open air
I want to see the world out there
And run
To leave the tunnels of the mind
I want to breathe the open air
To shed the mask I've had to wear
And run
To leave the depths and dark behind
Free, unconfined

The changing of the seasons
The colours of the vast and endless sky
The scorching and the freezing
The comfort of a soothing lullaby

I want to breathe the open air
I want to see the world out there
And run
To leave the tunnels of the mind
I want to breathe the open air
To shed the mask I've had to wear
And run
To leave the depths and dark behind
Free, unconfined

And the future's a railroad stretching endlessly
All our hopes keep rolling on the track
As the shadows of home become a memory
They will haunt us but they can't pull us back

Breathe in

I watch the sun rise
In skies so clear
We learn the outside
There's hope out here

I want to breathe the open air
I want to see the world out there
And run
To leave the tunnels of the mind
I want to breathe the open air
To shed the mask I've had to wear
And run
To leave the depths and dark behind
Free, unconfined

I watch the sun rise
In skies so clear
We learn the outside
There's hope out here
Free, unconfined
