She sits in silence
A coffee mug of dreams beside
Torn up lists and notes designed
She’s never had the will to reach for the
Inside of her dreams
The inside where her mind gets messy
She wants confetti confessing she’s not ready
But guessing that the steady climb will lead her to the
Outside - there she goes
Outside - where she’ll say
Walk alone and gather a line behind you
Walk alone, quiet all the noise
Armored shadows faith and fate ignite the darkest truth
Walk alone and gather a line behind you
She’ll learn reliance
On simple dreams and roads divined
One step left meets two steps right
She’ll finally find the will to reach for the
Inside of her dreams
The inside where her mind gets messy
She wants confetti confessing she’s not ready
But guessing that the steady climb will lead her to the
Outside - there she goes
Outside - where she’ll say
Walk alone and gather a line behind you
Walk alone, quiet all the noise
Armored shadows faith and fate ignite the darkest truth
Walk alone and gather a line behind you
No one’s here to stop you
No ones here to try
No one’s here to stop you
But the yellow in your eye
