Is this a question of time 
Is this a question of space 
I've been out of my mind 
I'm coming up for air 
To work it out 

If you throw me a line 
Then I'll try to replace 
All the things I can't find 
'Cause I'm coming up for air 
To let it out 

Defection from the state I'm in 
Reflections of a world within 

Back with myself again 
All my fears 
Just like a ball and chain 
And I know 
Although I am alone 
I'm at home 
Here with my selfish pain 

It's not a question of faith 
It's not a question of hope 
I'm getting out of this place 
I'm coming up for air 
To work it out 

Defection from the state I'm in 
Reflections of a world within 

Back with myself again 
All my fears 
Just like a ball and chain 
And I know 
Although I am alone 
I'm at home 
Here with my selfish pain 

I'm feeling colder now 
A little bolder now 
Pure as my sins allow 
Broke every promise and proud 

Back with myself again 
All my fears 
Just like a ball and chain 
And I know 
Although I am alone 
I'm at home 
Here with my selfish pain
