Heading for the Blue
[Verse 1] You said stay quiet Stay inside the lines Built the bars around me Called the cage a life Every doubt you planted Started growing roots Every whispered warning Turned my fear to proof [Pre-Chorus] Every breath was borrowed Every word denied Till your voice inside my head Sounded just like mine Every breath was borrowed Every word denied But now the cracks are showing And the locks won’t hold tonight [Chorus] I'm bigger than my mind now Blowing up into the sky Nothing holding me back now I'm headed for the blue Heading for the blue Head—heading for the blue I'm chasing all my dreams now And I'm done chasing you I've left my doubts behind me I thought I needed you I'm heading for the sky now I'm heading for the blue [Verse 2] You were like a poison Dressed up as a cure Every taste of freedom Made me want you more Every time I left you I would crawl right back for more Love like dirty medicine Running through my veins [Pre-Chorus] I was drowning slowly Every night the same Every breath without you Felt like walking flames Now the storm is over And the tide withdrew Now the voice inside me Doesn't sound like you [Chorus] I'm bigger than my mind now Blowing up into the sky Nothing holding me back now I'm headed for the blue Heading for the blue Head—heading for the blue I'm chasing all my dreams now And I'm done chasing you I've left my doubts behind me I thought I needed you I'm heading for the sky now I'm heading for the blue [Bridge – half-time breakdown] You built the cage inside my head Every word a thread of lead But the fire found the air tonight And the ash began to glow with light [Final Verse / Phoenix Rise] From the ashes rising Wings of burning gold All the ghosts you left for me Have Finally let me go Every scar a feather Every flame a truth I was never born broken but now i'm breaking through [Final Chorus] I'm bigger than my mind now Blowing up into the sky Nothing holding me back now I'm headed for the blue Heading for the blue Head—heading for the blue I'm chasing all my dreams Nothing’s chasing me I've left my doubts behind I thought I needed you Turns out that wasn't true heading for the blue
