I can see for a million miles

I’m higher than the clouds 

There’s obstacles ahead

but I know my way around

I ain’t no pretty boy

I had to make my own way

I got glass in my foot

I’ve been standing all day

 

I’m the first one awake

The last to go to sleep

Even if I wanted to quit

I’m in way too deep

I got the wind in my hair

It don’t want me to go

It’s tryin to keep me from something

What it is I got to know

 

So I listen to the wind blow

It’s blowing me back

It’s holding me back 

It won’t let me breathe

It’s got me begging for change

But it’s all still the same

It don’t matter what I say

The damage is done

 

A grey lens on the sky

The wind begins to wail

I can see the storm coming

This is no time to fail

 

I’m the first one awake

The last to go to sleep

Even if I wanted to quit

I’m in way too deep

I got the wind in my hair

It don’t want me to go

It’s tryin to keep me from something

What it is I got to know

 

So I listen to the wind blow

It’s blowing me back

It’s holding me back 

It won’t let me breathe

It’s got me begging for change

But it’s all still the same

It don’t matter what I say

The damage is done

So I listen to the wind blow

It’s blowing me back

It’s holding me back 

It won’t let me breathe

It’s got me begging for change

But it’s all still the same

It don’t matter what I say

The damage is done

 

(Ooh, ooh,

Blowing me back,

Holding me back,

Ahh, ahh...)
