Is it a hope that changes heaven and Earth? Or is it a notion?
I'm starting to steer away from that line as it blurs in the distance of what I thought I knew
Worlds laid to rest and lives let loose on the noose of tainted love
Playing back drunken midnight conversations, trying to piece together what was left behind
Iron bars barricade all the joy that I poured into another heart
Funny thing certainty without a warranty can be.
The things you feel you are capable of achieving even without a safety net
The words that you so easily believe because... Why not?
Understanding as a person, trying to make sense to a soul
I betrayed myself so steadily and with so much conviction
I can no longer find what it was that I left behind
What it was that let me believe in things that were left in the sky
Time goes by as slowly as it wants to and I leave a trail
Of lessons and pick up little bits of wisdom like a parched desert
Looking for a semblance of moisture to heal these deep cracks
How time teaches us what we need to learn, but what we maybe never had to
How a heart bares a burden larger than its being and walks away whole
Hopeful as ever, bashful with faith, and full of more love to give
I'm almost ready.
