Out In New Mexico
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.
(Verse 1)
These walls around me and the days are long
I fill my lungs with a widow's song
I'm looking for a reason, feel the spirit rise
I see my life before me when I close my eyes
(Chorus)
I picture a road out in New Mexico
Red earth and mountains and sky
I picture my soul out in New Mexico
With all that space rolling by
(Verse 2)
Sometimes I feel, in a world between
Everything I touch and everything I dream
Sometimes I long for the rose to bleed
For the spark to light in the depths of me
(Chorus)
(Break)
I'm so scared of what I'll find
If I let it go, if I look inside
I'm so scared of what I feel
If I let it go, if I make it real
(Chorus)
(Denouement)
With all that earth rolling by
With all these dreams rolling by
Leaving this life behind
