Departure

Sometimes I stare at the stars

And curse the universe for making me feel so small

'Cause by default, we don’t matter at all

But I’m learning how to make my time in this world count

I'm leaving my fear of the dark far behind

Out of mind to be with you

I’m cutting ties with all my fear and doubt

Carry me with all your favorite sounds

Because the fire I harbor inside

Could light the way to a better life

Set me free, I’ve got a message

To carry out, and I’m not afraid

No I’m not afraid

Can’t rest my back against the wall, it gets harder still

And blaming fate won’t help at all

Don’t wait around for your blessings to seek you out

I know the rain’s coming down

But I swear it won’t hurt you

I’m cutting ties with all my fear and doubt

Carry me with all your favorite sounds

Because the fire I harbor inside

Could light the way to a better life

Set me free, I’ve got a message

To carry out, and I’m not afraid
