Lyrics
She woke up breathless
She was born this way
Her mother prayed to God
Please, let her stay
I woke up breathless
Yet again today
Some days it seems I'm going nowhere fast
So God, get out of my way
If only each day would end
Without her falling toward the edge
She would wake up and forget
This feeling isn't over yet
You made her restless
Stole her soul every day
Rendered her lifeless
Till she found her way
The road, it widened
Her faith was a stream
That turned into a river
Now there's room to dream
If only each day would end
Without her falling toward the edge
She would wake up and forget
This feeling isn't over yet
