Lyrics Living Instead - Olivia Lane

Living Instead

I need to stop livin' in my head
Goin' over every word that I said
Trippin' over conversations
Givin' into my frustrations
Feedin' all the demons 'til there’s nothin' left
I need to drop my shoulders and breathe
Feel the sun wash over me
Cuttin' out the complications
Keepin' me from my salvation
I’m the only one who can set me free
Woah
Got peace like a river rollin' under my feet
Mercy on my soul like a faint drum beat
Rhythm in the trees blowin' all around me
I need to stop livin' in my head
And start livin' instead
Start livin' instead
Don’t need to be afraid of the sky
Need to give myself permission to fly
Breakin' free from all the blame
Learnin' not to be ashamed
Of bones in the closet I tried to hide
Woah
Got peace like a river rollin' under my feet
Mercy on my soul like a faint drum beat
Rhythm in the trees blowin' all around me
I need to stop livin' in my head
Let grace rain down like a long lost friend
Watch the clouds break, let the light back in
Gotta tell myself to tell me again
I need to stop livin' in my head
And start livin' instead
If you been all the way down (You can hear it)
If you put your ear to the ground (You can hear it)
Talk about a beautiful sound, I need that
Got peace like a river rollin' under my feet
Mercy on my soul like a faint drum beat
Rhythm in the trees blowin' all around me
I need to stop livin' in my head (Yeah)
Let grace rain down like a long lost friend (Ooh)
Watch the clouds break, let the light back in (Ooh)
Gotta tell myself to tell me again (Yeah, yeah)
I need to stop livin' in my head
I need to stop livin' in my head
I need to stop livin' in my head
Start livin' instead
Start livin' instead
Start livin' instead
Woah
Ooh, yeah
