Take Off Charlie - I Was Born to Float Lyrics

I am aboard the winding sea
Inside a vessel, but I long to be
Out of these hulls, the dirt beneath
I got my wish, but my legs are weak
I am cultured, I am cultivating fast
My every step is followed by a screen that shows the past
My days are filled with hours at a temple for a coin
I call for new direction but I'm scared stiff
My nights are so familiar, but the comfort calls me home
I search for new religions, but I find I like my own
Emma by the greyhound, I smile at his name
My family's not together, but I'm happy with the trade
I am learning that I'm not under control
The people who are watching just want money from us all
I used to think in patterns, I used to think in fact
The older I am getting, well now where's the fun in that
Like the branches of the mighty oak
Fallen gently to the river below
Like the branches of the mighty oak
Fallen, fallen down
I was born to float
Now everyday is a breath of air
And every chance I get, I thank the people who are there
And though I'm not for certain of the path that I will take
I'll find a better balance between traveling and staying
I am honest, I am trying to take flight
My wings are weighing down by certain aspects in my life
I'm having trouble flying to the places that I'd like
But maybe in this moment, this is just the perfect height
Like the summer dandelion blow
Flying gently in the air so slow
Like summer dandelion blow
Floating all around
I was born to float
