Meridian 65 – It's my time to fly lyrics

Running like the wind without a chance to catch my breath
miles of road behind me never took me anywhere
caught up in a circle of defeat and hidden fears
reaching for the moon to find the way was never clear

Lovers came and went but never filled the void inside
I played by all the rules while living someone else's life
I've felt the pangs of hunger with a chain around my neck
I dragged myself from underneath this heavy burning wreck

Chorus:
It's my turn to fly and I can see the world below
the mysteries of life revealed exposing the unknown
It's my turn to fly and all creation's in my hands
Uncovering the lies and giving me another chance

You cannot make believers out of shallow empty heads
You can't explain a feeling or the tide may turn again
I risk it all to live believing what I cannot see
time will tell if I am wrong but that is up to me

I yell it from the mountaintops do not deny the heart
I tell it to the children be the person that you are
It echoes through the valleys to awaken tired ears
it's never late to waken dreams you hid from all those years

So rest your weary soul tonight and allow yourself to dream
imagine what it might be like to live inside the scene
In truth the only promise is whatever you decide
Take the chance, you'll understand when that dream becomes
your life
