Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm coming out of my wishing well

Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers

I'm coming around to bending

'Cause my resistance's been too persistent

I've come to 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

[Verse 2]

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

It will be, yeah

[Verse 3]

I'm taking a breather, baby

From sitting on pins, waiting for my sky to fall

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm taking up giving in

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

[Verse 4]

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

It will be, yeah

[Verse 5]

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 who you are

[Verse 6]

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

It's who you are
