I stopped myself, I caught my breath
To feel the breeze flow through me
But nothing came, descend my wreck
The hands of time will choke you out
That something cold, unmoving
You know it too, it all too well
But I'll find my stride, do something right
And the weight of the world will lift off my spine
Lead the model life I know that I can lead
Some days don't turn out like you want to and go on forever
I stopped myself, I caught my breath
To feel the breeze flow through me
But nothing came, descend my wreck
But I'll find my stride, do something right
And the weight of the world will lift off my spine
Lead the model life I know that I can lead
Some days don't turn out like you want to and go on forever
