Open Air lyrics

A voice out in the distance The whistle of a signal on the waves A lifetime in an instant Flowers bloom upon untended graves The spinning of the engines The clatter of the wheels upon the tracks A twist in all the endings The price to pay for seeing through the cracks Breathe in Breathe in I want to breathe the open air I want to see the world out there and run To leave the tunnels of the mind I want to breathe the open air To shed the mask I've had to wear and run To leave the depths and dark behind Free, unconfined The changing of the seasons The colors of the vast and endless sky The scorching and the freezing The comfort of a soothing lullaby I want to breathe the open air I want to see the world out there and run To leave the tunnels of the mind I want to breathe the open air To shed the mask I've had to wear and run To leave the depths and dark behind Free, unconfined And the future's a railroad stretching endlessly All our hopes keep rolling on the track As the shadows of home become a memory They will haunt us but they can't pull us back Breathe in Breathe in I watch the sun rise In skies so clear We learn the outside There's hope out here I want to breathe the open air I want to see the world out there and run To leave the tunnels of the mind I want to breathe the open air To shed the mask I’ve had to wear and run To leave the depths and dark behind I watch the sun rise In skies so clear We learn the outside There's hope out here Free, unconfined
