It’s an old thought

But timeless

Come away with me

Away from this devil town

The world is so big

And places

They matter

We can drive

Until the gas runs out 

Or the roads no longer appear on the map

I’ll show you what I saw

And see things not yet seen

The illumination of the night and morning skies

Uncharted terrain

Waters, still and stormy

Your heart

Unlocked, set free

You’ve been here long enough

It is too small and safe

We’ll let God in

He can chart the course

Show the way 

And see where it all goes

The stars still shine in the dark

Stories to be written despite the past 

Joy to be stolen and found in sorrow 

The rebirthing of life
