Begin Again

Staring at the sun slip away Strain the music wanes Hovers like a dream she cries Ghosts that came to stay Reaching out to all that lies behind Forfeit one more day Try to find a perfect alibi Lost along the way Mending cracks in her halo Casting new spells to feel Falling back on nowhere Finding new ways to heal Surfs a wave on a bleeding sea Spinning out of control To live or die as I please she pleads No one to stay or leave A leap of faith to breathe again But she's losing hold Drops a dream that could never be A life never whole Dead voices wash over her Summon up all her fears Dead skin falls at the edges Hanging like a tear If we begin again Fall into this stream and swim I'll meet you on the other side No place to run and hide There'd just be me and you And no more promises That we stay chained to If we could begin again Begin again Cast off for an uncharted destiny Stretching for a void inside To touch an incorruptibility Once through to the other side She sheds perfect to begin again An epiphany rising in me Another life to live and mend Her grace sets me free Enchanted land engulfing me Ancient faces stare Tomorrow's eyes reign over me My unanswered prayer If we begin again Fall into this stream and swim I'll meet you on the other side No place to run and hide There'd just be me and you And no more promises That we stay chained to If we could begin again Begin again Tiny boat on the water It's safe to miss you again It's safe to risk you again Fair to admit nothing else matters River glinting blue, cut sapphire Rush over me, break to the other side Breaking free from this one way ride No expectations, coming back to me Tormenting notions Releasing dreams, on the line No expectations, alone to see Just let me, let me be My own vulnerability Open and free, free to conceive Free to leave, just let Just let me be me
