Don't be afraid, close your eyes
Lay it all down, don't you cry
Can't you see I'm going where I can see the sun rise
I've been talking to my angel, and he said that it's alright

I've always had to run, I don't know just why
A desire slowly smoking under the midwest sky
There's something waiting out there that says I've got to try
I've been talking to my angel, and he said that it's alright

This town thinks I'm crazy, they just think I'm strange
Sometimes they want to own me
Sometimes they wish I'd change
But I can feel the thunder underneath my feet
Well, I sold my soul for freedom, it's lonely but it's sweet

Don't be afraid, close your eyes
Lay it all down, don't you cry
Can't you see I'm going where I can see the sun rise
I've been talking to my angel, and he said that it's alright
