Jesse has ascended to the platform of the Redwood tree. After feeling brief panic at the altitude she calms down and recognizes the freedom of being in nature
[JESSE]
Here I am, it's fine, just count to three
If I stand, there's nothing holding me
Just a subtle breeze
I think I'll stay here on my knees
Don't look down, just focus on one thing
Oh my God, it's kinda hard to breathe
Will you remember me?
The city girl who died hugging a tree?
But from here, I can see it
Clearly, it's nature's remedy
Far away, for today
Can I stay, and make my great escape?
Here I am, I'm up a mile high
But somehow, I'm safer in the sky
'Cause it feels so right
I think I'll kiss the world goodbye
Open arms, I'm ready to release
In my heart, I'm suddenly at peace
If I've found my reverie
Then I'll never want to leave
'Cause from here, I can see it
Clearly, it's nature's remedy
Far away, for today
Can I stay, and make my great escape?
From here I see it all
And I never knew that
This world could look so small
Makes me feel like up here
Nothing can get to me now
And I can finally breathe again
But from here, I can see it
Clearly
Far away, for today
Can I stay?
And make my great escape
My great escape
I've found my great escape
