Lyrics
Flower in the desert
Spring into the fall
Rushing to the west side
When the east sent out the call

Lessons in the matter
Of staying on your feet
You can fall under the weight of it
And it can bring you to your knees

But I am never giving up
I am, I am, I am, I am
Holding on for a feeling

I don't need no one to hold my place
You can't take my thoughts
They're not your thoughts to take away
I don't need no one to tease my faith
I don't need no one to celebrate

'Cause all my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
Hey, all my friends, all my friends are here
Singing it out

Devil in the blue sky
Angel in the deep
Writing out your best lines
And forgetting how to read it

Counting in the wrong time
Starting on the three
There's a rhythm to the way life goes
It can knock you out of key

But I am starting to believe
I am, I am, I am, I am
Holding on for the real thing

I don't need no one to hold my place
You can't take my thoughts
They're not your thoughts to take away
I don't need no one to tease my faith
I don't need no one to celebrate

'Cause all my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
Hey, all my friends, all my friends are here
So singing it out

So singing it out
Singing it out

All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
Singing it out

All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
All my friends, all my friends are here
