The world is rushing past
At high velocity (at high velocity)
And I’m sitting off to the side
Where no one sees (no one sees)

Maybe I’m apathetic
Maybe I’m just bored (I’m just bored)
But I can’t understand
What they’re rushing for (what they’re rushing for)

And when I turn away
She is there to understand
And at the end of the day
She is there to hold my hand
I find moments of peace
When I’m looking in her eyes
She gives me a release
So my spirit flies

Shut up in small rooms
That’s how we spend our days (spend our days)
And that just makes me feel
Like an animal in a cage (animal in a cage)

Surrounded by all of the people
I don’t wanna see (don’t wanna see)
Working on things they say matter
Just not to me (just not to me)

And when I turn away
She is there to understand
And at the end of the day
She is there to hold my hand
I find moments of peace
When I’m looking in her eyes
She gives me a release
So my spirit flies

Everyone’s chasing something
They just don’t know what (don’t know what)
They can’t seem to be happy
With what they’ve got (what they’ve got)

As soon as they’ve reached their goal
They’re off to the next big thing (the next big thing)
While I just hope to find out
What this moment will bring (what this moment will bring)

And when I turn away
She is there to understand
And at the end of the day
She is there to hold my hand
I find moments of peace
When I’m looking in her eyes
She gives me a release
So my spirit flies
