Comforted by sleep, in daylight, hidden by blinds
Ones for now that only make me weep
This view calls to my soul
A soul that can’t fall, no matter how high, no matter how steep
Today I will not let go, today I will hold on
I choose to live by choice and choose to not leap
Forever I convince myself
Forever I convince, only myself
Forever I beg a voice inside, to listen, as I ask with words that don’t hold back
Please, help, I can’t yell, I can’t yell, far from hell, I can finally tell
I am strong, the voice of my own says all along
This is certain, as he tells me my soul is not wrong
I will not wrong, only living to just be
Only living to be strong, taking myself to a place I can finally see
That in which is forever, that in which is free
I am forever, in an existence I only ever belonged to already
Why is this freedom felt so much, with a sky above so heavy
Why are my thoughts loud, I know now I can make them a whisper
I am finally ready and I will sing to write lyrics
I sing to write a song
To survive life that seems short
To survive days that seems so very long
I open my blinds and my reflection is not seen past the window
But the pain of my finger prints from yesterday
Is in the way of my vision to help me make decisions
It is a stain in front of a view of clouds with no snow and no rain
I am so high, as I look out, and in the sky, as I look down
I am stuck wondering why as my answer is already found
I am far above ground, no longer swimming in water, right now, I am dry
I am far from drowning, I can breathe, as I don’t even try
I need not try and I am confident that today I will not die
I need to look out, I need not cry
I look out into the horizon and feel I can reach it
I know deep down I can as my sins remind me that I am only a good man
My soul is here as my soul can see
As the window I look away from becomes the door to my room I walk to
In the room, I’ve already let go
I let nothing stop me, to just breathe, to just be, to just see
The place down below has become the path I can finally run free
