Lyrics
Genesis
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I reject both sides of what I've been told
I see right through
Now watch how wild it gets
I finally achieved
Balance, balance, balance, balance
Approaching a delayed
Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth
I'm positive
There's no sense of what I've been told
Yeah, here I go
Oh, watch how wild it gets
How can you change your life?
Balance, balance, balance, balance
How will you spend your time?
Reborn, reborn, reborn, reborn
Climbing out of the ashes
Turning time inside out
We’re miles beyond the sound
We'll start again
Pray for last night
It never gets old
Yeah, here we go
Just watch how wild it gets
I finally achieved
Balance, balance, balance, balance
Approaching a delayed
Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth
Climbing out of the ashes
We're turning time inside out
We're floating off in the ether
We’re miles beyond the sound
We're everywhere
No need to return
I'll show you the way
We're everywhere
No need to return
I'd take you away
No need to return
I saw you climbing out of the ashes
We're turning time inside out
Floating off in the ether
We’re miles beyond the sound
How can you change your life?
Balance, balance, balance
How will you spend your time?
Reborn
