So I guess it's not what I wanted
What I want just shouldn't be gone
It can swing me around, toss my heart to the ground
But I know if it's here it's not wrong

See my mind is full of ideals
I know the things I must see
But with every step one more falls off my chest
And the emptiness makes me feel free

Can you see the skyline growing dim
Through the trees and city lights
Do you know that your hope just got hung by a rope
By the neck and it put up no fight
By the neck and it put up no fight

Guess you heard I'm thinking of leaving
Got my bags packed and counting the days
But these bridges aren't burned, just one more lesson learned
And I'm sure we will each find our way

And I guess this must disappoint you
It must feel like I'm running away
But I feel like I'll die if I dont learn to fly
And I'm sure that you'll see me someday

Can you see the skyline growing bright
With the future spread out like the sea
I can hear all the wrong in the siren's sweet song
And the emptiness makes me feel free
And the emptiness makes me feel free

Like a tree cut down for the fire
I know this life will be short
Though marked with the scars and these cracks in my heart
I hope that the fire burns warm
Yeah, let's hear the fireplace roar

Can you see the skyline open wide
Like a door in a pitch black room
And my Jesus is there and I leave all my cares
Like that stone rolled away from His tomb

Can you see the skyline open wide
Like a door in a pitch black room
And my Jesus is there and I leave all my cares
Like that stone rolled away from His tomb
Like that stone rolled away from His tomb
