lyrics

How things are
and how things could be
all this time,
I never thought to be easy.
I am clearly capable of
speaking for myself.
Looking back on everything that
shut me off
and cut me in half.
Holding my fist to my heart,
you don't understand.

This story starts with
never-ending pain
and ends with solace
condemning me
and throwing this behind.

Never satisfied, but always content.
Right in front of me,
becoming whole.
Time for a change,
the best of gifts.
Nothing can compare
to any thoughts of this.

Holding down my fort
in hopes of retaliation.
Bringing all my sorrows back?
That won't mean much to me.

Time for readjustment
with powers to preserve.
Questions of values
and powerful words.
In thoughts of hope,
I don't know where to begin.
I've strayed from the path once before,
I'll never lose myself again.

I'll never lose myself.
