If I Only Could...

Break away from the quicksand
Fly free from the things doomed to die
Stay above the swirling darkness I see
Make sure I see the sky

Move across the ocean
Not ever look down below
All I’ll see is what I’ve escaped
And the things I think I know

Hold close to my heart the song
That I’ve heard for a long time humming
Close my eyes to the pointless pain
And relish the joy that’s coming
