lyrics
I can't even climb all these walls that I built
I'm looking for a gap, but I built them way too high
When will I finally see the other side?
I don't know
Where I am going, only where I came from
Those words mean nothing at all
They mean nothing
I'm starting to feel okay,
though home feels just so far way
I'm starting to feel okay
I'm standing on the shoulders of giants, and I've got that debt to pay
(Can you see the land from the sea?
There's an ocean staring back at me)
So I cast my sails, I am leaving home
The one that I know
I cut my anchor and now it's time to be alone
If these things are so important, then why did I decide to leave them?
Manifest destiny I resent your name
I'm looking for a gap, but I built them way too high
When will I finally see the other side?
I don't know
Where I am going, only where I came from
Those words mean nothing at all
They mean nothing
I'm starting to feel okay,
though home feels just so far way
I'm starting to feel okay
I'm standing on the shoulders of giants, and I've got that debt to pay
(Can you see the land from the sea?
There's an ocean staring back at me)
So I cast my sails, I am leaving home
The one that I know
I cut my anchor and now it's time to be alone
If these things are so important, then why did I decide to leave them?
Manifest destiny I resent your name
