I close my eyes and sing
Release my arms and swing
I refuse to hold it in
I won't be silenced anymore
Now I won't be silenced anymore
I close my eyes and sing
I was born into an illusion
Has me wrapped up and contained
Has me measured and explained
But I won't accept this path
Has me rushing towards my death
I open up and let it ring...
And I close my eyes and sing
This act is my rebellion
To keep my soul alive
In the wavering of times
I close my eyes and sing
They say we fight for our survival
Well I fight to love the world
I fight to feel the mystery
Behind every living thing
I tell you it's not easy
I fall back into their stories
That I do not measure up
Oh no no, free me from my mind
Open up and let it ring
Open up
I close my eyes and sing
This act is my rebellion
To keep my soul alive
In the wavering of times
I close my eyes and sing
Release my arms and swing
Refuse to hold it in
I close my eyes and sing
This act is my rebellion
To keep my soul alive
In the wavering of times
I close my eyes and sing
