It's Beautiful (Once You're Out Here)

Somewhere down below the calm of the surface
White-hot reason burns an open road
Like the hammer to the iron from the furnace
I’ll let it take me; I’ll let it shape me
And then I hear the voice of God
In time to walk away
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
Just get in the car and drive
Start with open eyes, follow with a step outside
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
I saw him standing just outside in the background
Living evil in a human form
The source of every bitter twist
Every nightmare
Within my reach if I could
I could just reach him
But then I heard the voice of God
Just turn and walk away
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
Just get in the car and drive
Start with open eyes, follow with a step outside
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
All your burdens
weigh you down
There’s dignity
there is release in standing on your feet
And screaming
I’m letting go
Let it go
If you should hear the voice of God
In time to walk away
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
Just get in the car and drive
Start with open eyes, follow with a step outside
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
Your life is waiting
just get in the car and drive
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
It’s beautiful once you’re out here
