I see the trees. I see the sky
I close my eyes, and I try to fly.
And then I see my chains in the world around me,
And my schedule binds me down.
Oh, life.
What is living?
Can I break through the restrictions I place on me?
Can I release the expectations and set myself free?
I remember the child when I knew how to live.
I close my eyes and try to forgive.
And then I see the simplicity I used to know.
And my chaotic life, I must let go.
Oh life,
What is living?
Can I break through the restrictions I place on me?
Can I release the expectations and set myself free?
