Words
Simply cannot take me to all of the places that I want to go
So, I
I close shop and forget what I forgot
And walk an unfamiliar road

When I lift these
Eyes up to take me far away from this
What's the danger in
Seeing what I find?

I'm tired of growing up and growing out of it
No matter how loud it gets
It's a part of me I'll keep until I'm
Taken out of this place

Words
Simply cannot take me to all of the places that I want to go
So, I
I run home and batten down the windows
And walk an unfamiliar road
Where you can find me
Out, floatin' through the mountains and the clouds
Dodgin' all the sounds of the crowds that surround
All the pretty pictures that I've found
Cause it's time to take back control of me
Now, and nobody really comes around
I hardly ever know what it's about
But when I go through a drought
Or when my face hits the ground
I know it's time to let it go and lift these

Eyes up to take me far away from this
What's the danger in
Seeing what I find?

I'm tired of growing up and growing out of it
No matter how loud it gets
It's a part of me I'll keep until I'm
Taken out of this place

So tell me who I am
Tell me I'm the son of the one true son of man
And tell me you can see
Every ounce of power in each sliver of my rundown dreams
And tell me that you need
These gears that won't stop spinnin'
With every single thought that I think
And that I'm what I'm supposed to be
And that I'm safe inside your arms with all I am
When I lift these

Eyes up to take me far away from this
What's the danger in
Seeing what I find?

I'm tired of growing up and growing out of it
No matter how loud it gets
It's a part of me I'll keep until I'm

Words
Simply cannot take me to all of the places that I want to go
So, I
I run home and batten down the windows
And walk an unfamiliar road
