So as my wild nights calm down and become less I've started to look at myself critical. I think there are far too many things I've done that I would nreever have thought I was capable of and I'm not really sure I know the person that I have become. I'm not even sure I like her.
Throughout high school, I played sports, I painted, I drew, I wrote, I acted, I danced.
Now I can't really remember a time recently that I have done any of those things. I think of all the stuff that fills my time now and I can't help but wonder why those things overrule the activities that used to define me, that brought me joy, that were me. I think it's time for a life change.
I have not become a bad person, but I realize now that somewhere along the way, I've lost myself, and the person that I wanted to be.
I'm taking a step back on the path I'm following to get my bearings and check my direction. Perhaps I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be and exactly who I'm supposed to be. I don't regret anything that got me here and made me the person I am today. I've made mistakes, I've learned lessons, and I've survived hardships. I believe I'm a better person for it. I just don't believe my journey's over.
Only now, instead of going where life pushes me and stumbling along with the tide, I'm going to start placing my feet where I want them. I have choices in my life and now I think it's time to start listening to that quiet voice in my heart that has been silenced for so long.
I feel these four walls closing in
Face up against the glass
I'm looking out, hmmm
Is this my life I'm wondering
It happened so fast
How do I turn this thing around
Is this the bed I chose to make
It's greener pastures I'm thinking about
Hmm, wide open spaces far away
All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but not feel scared
Ooh, wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses
Run with the wild horses, oh
Yeah, oh oh, ye-yeah
I see the girl I wanna be
Riding bare-back, care-free
Along the shore
If only that someone was me
Jumping head-first, head-long
Without a thought
To act and damn the consequence
How I wish it could be that easy
But fear surrounds me like a fence
I wanna break free
All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear, but not feel scared
Oooh, wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses
Run with the wild horses, oh
I wanna run too
Oooh oh oh oh
Recklessly emboundening myself before you
I wanna open up my heart
Tell him how I feel, ooh ooh
Oooh, wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses
Run with the wild horses
Run with the wild horses
Ooh ooooh ooh ooh ye-yeah yeah oohh
I wanna run with the wild horses, ooooh
