Tides

It’s been so long
Since I last saw you
I’ve just been here all by myself
Pulling old books from the top shelf
Leaves are falling
But I don’t plan on coming down
How does it look from way up there
Can I survive the mountain air
Hold your questions
You’ll find your answer off the page
I heard you calling from afar
Set off to find out where you are
I can’t help it,
I can’t help but speak my mind
I swore someday I’d leave this place
It’s time to take that leap of faith
They see me running through their dreams at night
Trying to keep my self above the tide
And if I fail at least I know I tried
Tried my best to keep an open mind
I tried my best to keep an open mind
They call me head strong
But I have had my ups and down
I’ve seen reflections of the past
Beneath the shadows that you’ve cast
Look around you
Can you feel the open air
The view is better is from right here
You’re right there was nothing to fear
They see me running through their dreams at night
Trying to keep my self above the tide
And if I fail at least I know I tried
Tried my best to keep an open mind
They see me running through their dreams at night
Trying to keep my self above the tide
And if I fail at least I know I tried
