I sold the memories of the person I used to be to fund my new adventures
I've got to live the life I write about, dream about, speak about
I'm headed west, coasting to the east , drifting north and
dreaming of the south
To see the places I want to see, be the girl that's free
Now nothing in this world can stop me now
The places I'm going to I have always longed for
When this city wakes up it won't notice I'm gone
The headlights The moonlight I'll find my way
The mountains, the rivers
There's no reason to stay

Open your mind and push that ego out of the way
Open your heart and find love is here to stay
Open your eyes and see the beauty in every day
It's your choice to make

Smiles aren't always happy and frowns aren't always upset
People judge too quickly and our feelings are what they forget

So slow down that mouth of yours and think before you speak
about the people who take up space around you
You never know who's really weak

Open your mind and push that ego out of the way
Open your heart and find love is here to stay
Open your eyes and see the beauty in every day
It's your choice to make

You broke my heart and I'm trying to mend it
I'm leery and weary and can't forget it
I want to trust again but I'm not sure I can
Stepping out to turn back time
It's all an illusion of the mind
I don't know where to go from here
My mind tells me to run from this fear
With all that's decaying the healing is in my tears
