    Story Behind the Song
    I took a class on Eastern Philosophy and Religion last summer... This song is really about the struggle that I (and most people have) crossing the hurdles they come across in life. Sometimes I, personally, try so hard to figure out the answers to my problems that I think in circles and make things worse... and by letting go and accepting everything the way it is at the present moment (kind of a Buddhist thing to do I suppose) you can achieve true clarity.

    Lyrics
    i dont know how much longer i can keep myself from running
    set my eyes on the future and i still dont see it clear
    it used to be enough to just breathe in, close my eyes when it's coming
    innocence seems to be what's in, but there's no room for that here

    I can wait but for how long
    i hesitate, am i that strong
    looking in doesn't always make me see
    there's so much more to me

    swallow it, spit it out, it's really all the same
    win or lose, how could I choose, I'm in the circle game
    every decision will have it's price, the question's in the paying
    can it be without sacrifice, i'm on my knees and praying

    I can wait but for how long
    I debate, am I that strong
    looking out doesn't always make me see
    there's so much more to me

    will it really balance for me in the end
    im looking my the window for a place to land
    im keeping faith with me in case i need a hand
    to understand

    When i want it i suffer, i'm blind to all that's near me
    maybe I should be tougher, maybe that would get me there
    I remember when i just breathed in, how i saw so clearly
    Doesn’t matter the state I'm in, as long i'm aware

    I can wait, for so so long
    I meditate. I write this song
    letting go, is the light that lets me see
    everything in me, everything in me
