Quiet By 9 - Different Directions

She goes on life following the 60 ticks of her town.
The traffic always flowing to her heart
It's a shame that town isn't where she lives.
The traffic lights of her mind

The people scream the right into her.
seeking punishment and pain.
But what's right to her is something given
Absolutely no chance

And she's crying to understand it oh
But it crumbles before she begins to build
All her thoughts and dreams go in different directions
Than the route on His map of her life
And it comes up and builds inside her…release

She just stares at them everyday.
The stone walls that surround her.
The bleeding fingers from her efforts to climb.
Will be the mark of her escape

She's been called crazy to her face
But it's not their call that matters
She'd rather be dead than following the life of convenience for
the rest.

And she's crying to understand it oh
And it crumbles before she begins to build
All her thoughts and dreams go in different directions
Than the route on His map of her life
And it comes up and builds inside her…release

He says it won't be long now.
But he's afraid she doesn't listen.
She wants to pack her bags and run away.
But he'll follow her to her grave.

And she's crying to understand it oh
And it crumbles before she begins to build
All her thoughts and dreams go in different directions
Than the route on His map of her life
All I can do is join her inside here
And give her love upon love upon love
And it comes up and fills inside her…..release.
