Lyrics
I am an new soul, working my way down an old road
I spot churches all around
Roots break through this deep foundation
Can't find my place on solid ground
No one taught me how to let go
Been hanging by a thread on the tight rope
And you can't speak what you don't know
That's for sure
So don't wait up for me
I don't need your searchlight
While you're fast asleep
I am running free
It's all right
I know you have a plan
But that's not who I am
I don't know where I land
But I don't need your searchlight to see anymore
Raindrops fall and they feel like the open ocean
Spider webs shimmer in the dark
These movies play out in slow motion
Cobwebs linger in the heart
No one taught me how to let go
Been hanging by a thread on the tight rope
But you can still learn what you don't know
That's for sure
So don't wait up for me
I don't need your search light
While you're fast asleep
I am running free
It's all right
I know you have a plan
But that's not who I am
I don't know where I land
But I don't need your search light to see anymore
I am an new soul, working my way down an old road
Just looking for a place on solid ground
So don't wait up for me
I don't need your search light
While you're fast asleep
I am running free
It's all right
I know you have a plan
But that's not who I am
I don't know where I land
But I don't need your search light to see anymore
