We've 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 walk with a sense of wonder or if we are in a time of reason
We can recall these days
Investigating dread and dreams

We've 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've 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 dread, these dreams
We will not be broken
Though we may bend like a reed in the wind
