[Verse 1]
Look out there, the streets are silent
And no one in the world is buyin' it
Imagining a new solution
From this desparate isolation
And I could borrow days from springtime
And put them in this endless timeline
[Verse 2]
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
Seems like the days all run together
Creates illusions of some freedoms
Instead, I'm trapped and I'm not breathing
The grass is greener in my mind
I feel the calming winds inline
With warmer breezes fallin' on me
Close my eyes and I will be there
[Chorus]
(Go)
Feet come down
(Go)
Touch the ground
(Go)
I feel sand between my toes
Sunlight
(Go)
It's alright
There's no more frozen miles to go
[Verse 3]
Taking me to far off places
See how beautiful the faces
Looking out beyond the shoreline
Yeah, I know it's just my fence line
I can't afford to leave this place
Should I try to anyway?
[Verse 4]
Pack my bags, I wait no longer
I feel these forces pulling stronger
Talk is cheap and hesitation
Contributes to remediation
Love, I'm coming there to see you
Looks like these endless dreams will come true
Close my eyes and I will be there
[Chorus]
(Go)
Feet come down
(Go)
Touch the ground
(Go)
I feel sand between my toes
Sunlight
(Go)
It's alright
There's no more frozen miles to go
[Outro]
So far away
