We searched long enough for the right words Because you can only hold your breath for so long Until it's gone I see a shadow far away in the distance I see a target where we are aiming And when I consider all that we have learned All these experiences I know the roots will go down to the bottom If we walk in a sense of wonder Or if we are in a time of reason We can recall these days Investigating dread and dreams We searched long enough for the right words Because you can only hold your breath for so long Until it's gone Pressing my feet on to the ground I know that I'm here in these words like weeds After all is said, aren't we here for something true I throw my hands into the air and I will not be broken Even though I may bend like a reed in the wind We searched long enough for the right words Because you can only hold your breath for so long Until it's gone We will know what to say We will know each step to take From what we've learned Investigating each dread and dream Each dread Each dream This tread, these dreams We will not be broken Though we may bend like a reed in the wind
