Anywhere But Here

There's no need for distance

No need for touch

No need for answers 'cause I've heard enough

I just found a chest, some place out of reach

I enter the darkness and lay my release

And open my, open my heart

Sing like a nightingale, open my, open my hands

When no one else understands

I just close my eyes and count to ten

Breathe in twice and open them

Nowhere to go 'cause I've been there before

In my mind, it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here

There's no need for anger

Religion or faith

One blade of grief will always remain

It's not on the paper or a storybook

It's a place to reunite with all that was took

And open my, open my heart

Sing like a nightingale, open my, open my hands

When no one else understands

I just close my eyes and count to ten

Breathe in twice and open them

Nowhere to go 'cause I've been there before

In my mind, it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here

Picture a land where you never have been

Where life is eternal and evergreen

The future of happiness and certainty

You're loved and you're lost there for now

And eternity, yeah

I close my eyes and count to ten

Breathe in twice and open them

Nowhere to go 'cause I've been there before

In my mind, it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here
