No Parallels

This is happiness, to be everything at once
Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned

Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind
Tassels streaming from our necks, we cast a wake amidst the wind
We're the roamers to the road, barebacked, spirit and in mind
Oh, to be free like this

This is happiness, to be everything at once
Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned
This is happiness. I'm fearless and I'm free
With the open road and the world beneath my feet

With splinters in our teeth, we're driven from our parallels
Our path a prison, bound to walk where countless feet already fell
But there's a wildness in our heart, that we've forgotten in our march
All to be free like this

We're branded and we're burdened from the moment we are born
We're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw
Forget your feet and where they fall, lift your head, carry on

No fear, just faith, no bit, just break the path and let it lead you
Unknown, unblind, run free, run wild and leave behind what holds you down

Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind
