if i look back, i’m lost — i’ll follow the path towards discovery

i've been sleeping for so long — but i'm finally awake ( you've opened up my eyes )

i've spent years building up walls

( playing it safe ) — standing in line when i should run

( run for my life )

before it's gone

since when did people grow afraid of color ? ( does anybody know what we're running from? )

brother, we were born with wings — we are meant for greater things.

i was a wild and lively child ( and those sparkles in my eyes still remain )

since when did people grow afraid of dreaming ? ( since when did happiness become commodified ? )

am i brave enough to stretch beyond my borders?

.....

( — i'm frightened of what i have become )

i know there's more to learn

....

( i know there's more to be )

there's no serenity in living without feeling ( without courage, we'll always live a lie )

those searching for simplicity will never write a page of history

i'll be stuck in this dream ( can't wake up, can't get free )

i don't know how i ended up here ( it's so hard to believe )

there's one chance and this much is so clear: if i miss it, i may never leave.

i'll be stuck in this dream ( can't wake up, can't get free )

will i be on my way ( or will i have to stay ? ) but it's always a matter of time…

( destiny… ) — i'm not sure what that means

destiny… i'm not sure what that means and history… well, it's not everything that it seems
