Lyrics
0:22I'm coming out of my wishin' well
0:26Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers
0:33I'm coming around to bending
0:36My resistance's been far too persistent
0:44I've come too far to force it
0:46So I'll watch it slide and land
0:55I could come on strong and willful but
0:57I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my
0:59Hand
1:05And when I
1:07Set it free
1:08Like a feather
1:09It will be
1:11And when I rise
1:12To see it done
1:13Like whatever
1:15It will be
1:16It will be
1:32I'm taking a breather baby
1:35From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall
1:43I'm taking up giving in
1:45So here's the wheel I'm putting my feet up
1:53Take another look at me baby
1:56Today I'm taking on catastrophe
2:04I'd rather take it easy
2:07Than try to force what's on its way to me
2:15And when I
2:16Set it free
2:17Like a feather
2:19It will be
2:20And when I rise
2:21To see it done
2:23Like whatever
2:24It will be
2:25It will be
2:51We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too
2:53Far
2:54The light behind that we free will blind other stars
2:56But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
2:59So get ready to be
3:02We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too
3:04Far
3:04The light behind that we free will blind other stars
3:07But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
3:11To you are
I'm coming out of my wishin' well Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers I'm coming around to bending My resistance's been far too persistent I've come too far to force it So I'll watch it slide and land I could come on strong and willful but I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my Hand And when I Set it free Like a feather It will be And when I rise To see it done Like whatever It will be It will be I'm taking a breather baby From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall I'm taking up giving in So here's the wheel I'm putting my feet up Take another look at me baby Today I'm taking on catastrophe I'd rather take it easy Than try to force what's on its way to me And when I Set it free Like a feather It will be And when I rise To see it done Like whatever It will be It will be We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too Far The light behind that we free will blind other stars But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far So get ready to be We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too Far The light behind that we free will blind other stars But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far To you are
