Sleeping At Last

One day we'll wake up and realize
To make any difference one must simply try
Try to use words less than our hands
For change is a direct result of our plans

We've got no stakes in the ground
We've got no anchors tied down
Land or sea, there are no guarantees here, we know
There is nothing but our fears of being free

It feels deeper than any ocean floor
Our lungs no longer believe in any shore

So let's dry out our clothes and catch our breath
Our process implies our progress

We've got no stakes in the ground
We've got no anchors tied down
Land or sea, there are no guarantees here, god knows
There is nothing but our fears of being free

Finally, there's a mountain beneath us
But up here our lungs fight against us
Land or sea, there are no guarantees here
God knows there is nothing but our fears
