lyrics

Haven't slept much for the past week
You keep on raising your hands
Your redemption in your bare feet
No one understands
When they all said it was a breakdown
Spaceship us starting to crack
You take your shoes off, you make a clean break
Just promise you're coming back
Open road with all your history
She just won't stop talking to the trees

You make a phone call, you sing a love song
Your heart beats in your head
And your mind is racing through the cosmos
And the ground is falling away
You throw your hands up to the sky, you let it all go
And now you're finally free
You say you're gonna take me to put my hands up
So I can feel what you feel
