This Time

This time I close my eyes But now they're opened wide To all of the things that blind To all of the things that obscure my sight This time I face the truth To all of the obstacles thrown in plain view To all of the visible clues Of everything I have to lose This time I can breathe Now the air is clear and clean For a future I can believe Now my soul is truly free
