If I Could See The World Lyrics

Lonely Trip

Lyrics to If I Could See The World
Sleepwalking through these times
My penance for a life of crimes
But somewhere beyond the alibis
There's a world of beauty outside my mind

I've been trying to debate my way out of reality
To explain and justify
The whispers from the voice inside
Now I'm drifting on a changing tide

I hate the drowning but I love the dives
The judgement day arrives
Kiting all day, what am I gonna do?
How am I gonna do it?

So if you've got moral clarity
You're not in deep enough
It took me a long time to admit defeat, when I lose I win
When I let go, I learn and you never know if help is gonna come from...

Sleepwalking through these times
Now the fall is over so I begin the climb
Now I see the world through open eyes
A world of beauty outside of my mind

I can see the world through open eyes
A world of beauty outside of my mind
I can see the world through open eyes
So shout it from the mountain side
I can see the world through open eyes
A world of beauty outside of my mind
