My family condemns me But it's empty in that city of sand Exhale away what you breathe in me I was a planet away from where I needed to be Send my fears into the ocean Wash away, wash away Wash them away down Paid my dues, went through the motions Wash away, wash away Wash them away down And I pray my compass stays open Lead the way, lead the way Lead the way now And I'm sending my fears into the ocean Wash away, wash away Wash them away down Send my fears into the ocean Wash away, wash away Wash them away down Paid my dues, went through the motions Wash away, wash away Wash them away down And I pray my compass stays open Lead the way, lead the way Lead the way now And I'm sending my fears into the ocean Wash away, wash away Wash them away down
