Like a Breath of Life, Like Freedom





Softer now sing me to sleep
A lullaby to help me dream
I pray to god my soul he'll keep
Watch over me now...

I walk the line I'm on the brink and
Darker thoughts my head does think
I see the path but can't find the light
Because it's hidden in the foreground

I ponder thoughts that make me think
To forget the past, red wine I drink
Spilling over time and love I sink
Falling further into you

What do I know at 25?
In this brief existence sheltered life
I've seen some things, I've failed, I've tried
Given everything & nothing

It's a long and winding road I see
Crawling over hills and through the trees
Beyond the fence and past the fields
To find a place worth finally resting

So, strip my clothes and take my things
cause all I need are just six strings
& My woman, I've got peace of mind
And precious, precious time

As crickets sing the day to bed
With sunset songs, sky fire red
A melodies dancing through my head
Like a Breath of Life, Like Freedom
