It can be difficult to let words flow,

From the river of your soul.

It can be devastating to be firm,

And speak how you feel.

It can be heartbreaking to have resentments,

But that's why you learn to live from your heart.

Cat's got our tongue on feelings to be shared.

But you look for her to be able to let go.

Groundless from fear of integrity,

But you find your ground in insanity.

You build up a lie from glamour filled safety,

But living a lie isn't what you came here for.

We didn't come together to fill empty space

With mindless pleasure caught in stasis.

We fell together to look for the trace

That made living wholeheartedly our nemesis.

There's no time to live back in yesterday.

It's time we pulled each other together,

So we can make our way back to grace.

Our hands together for the perfect pace.

Remembering better days was our place.

Always wanting easier times when

Just being alive was our homemade Zen,

But this shaky foundation makes it no longer the case.

Growing older craving for days that were better.

Trapped in nostalgia wishing for that letter

Saying life was once full of things that matter.

But I began to leave this dream

Of days following my shadow

Reminding me of being carefree.

My feet finally touched the ground.

This is where my heart was found.

I let my feet settle

On a solid foundation.

No more struggle

With changing affliction.

I landed in a place full of fears.

The place where I left my tears.

I abandoned my vulnerability

To run away from humility.

But I let myself stay

To let go of past dismay.

When I found myself

I was able to extend my arm

And pull myself out

From living a lie

Of conformity.

This is the basis of living life anew

Like I had nothing left to lose.

So, here I am, reaching out to you

To pull you from the depths of excuse.
