Reach For The Sun

I wrote a song about war, the kind that lives in your head
I found a place I can sit, a place where everyday light hits
Like the palm of your hand when you’re reaching for something
That’s balled up in the sky
That’s the way I like to see myself;
Reaching for just one star at a time
I heard what was a song inside the earth
I put my ear to the ground and I sang with every word
See, I got lost in the sound
It was the moment I felt sick, just when I needed it most
There is not much to explain
Except I found myself blinded by every bit of light
I felt so safe inside the sight of the sun
I really think I’m home now, I really think that
I heard what was a song inside the earth
I put my ear to the ground and I sang with every word
I felt a wave so strong, I fell right in it
It hit so hard and it took my spirit
Know that I belong to you until I die
I remember giving this a try…
I screamed so loud, 'cause that’s exactly how I felt
It broke me out, and I gave up all my plans
I set them down, 'cause I really need to see the sun again
Don’t worry, 'cause I’ll be fine
