All I am is what's in my mind
I get so wound up I get nearly blind
To the beauty right in front of my nose
I forget that I am merely a rose
Put here to blossom among the thorns
It's not for me to rule the storms
I'm packed so heavy for the road
I want to lighten my load
Let's breathe
Let's take the time
Loosen the strings
And ease the mind
Let's Breathe
So much time living in the past
Or having visions of my future path
Brought me any closer to Shangri la
Even though I want to say au revoir
To the recycling inside my head
That stirs the pot of brooding dread
I want to head into the light
And raise my angle of sight
Let's breathe
Let's take the time
Loosen the strings
And ease the mind
Let's Breathe
Let's Breathe
Let's Breathe
