One Time

I used to live behind a fortress wall Collected all the stones, built it on my own Stories on top of stories left untold Together with no plans of ever-growing old But now I look around and all that I can see (All that I can see, all that I can see, all that I can see) Is every brick I lay, keeping the world from me Well, safety for me then is prison to me now (Prison to me now, prison to me now, prison to me now, but) But I built this wall so well it's hard to tear it down, no And I don't know what I see But if I'm speaking truthfully I know it ain't easy, it ain't easy But if I could just get one time When everything just fell in line Oh, release me, release me It's crazy what we do to stay alive The prices that we pay to enlist in sunrise I had so many needs I set aside But now that I survived, I'm learning how to thrive 'Cause now I look around and don't know what I see (Don't know what I see, don't know what I see, don't know what I see) Is this just empty space or opportunity? What used to scare me then, I'm seeing daily now (Seeing daily now, seeing daily now, seeing daily now, so) So I trade my comfort zone for new uncharted ground, oh-ah And I don't know what I see But if I'm speaking truthfully I know it ain't easy, it ain't easy But if I could just get one time When everything just fell in line Oh, release me, release me I don't know what I see But if I'm speaking truthfully I know it ain't easy, it ain't easy But if I could just get one time When everything just fell in line Oh, release me, release me, oh-ah I don't know what I see But if I'm speaking truthfully I know it ain't easy, it ain't easy, yeah And if I could just get one time When it all fell in line Oh, release me, release me, yeah
