Alone at last, the story goes
But in her head she's on her toes
As thoughts begin to paint the end
There's nothing left to comprehend
It's here and now and then and there
It's everything that's everywhere
The book is me, the book is you
The words are everything we do
They're in the sea and if you swim
you'll have to fight with every limb
And when you're scattered in the deep
you need to bring yourself to speak
For what is good will not forsake
So carry, give and never take
Let go of all you'll ever own
you weren't made to be *alone
undo
Kept looking on the bright side I got blinded by the sun
And now it doesn't matter 'cause I can't see anyone
I could've went about it a completely different way
Seen life for what it was instead of staring in its face
What sense I tried to make was just a waste of what I had
And even though I knew it I continued  turning back
The corners of my eyes became the wandering abyss
A place to put my body in a parallel to its
Wherever I was going never got me very far
Whatever I was seeing didn't show me who we are
So now I sit in darkness wait for something else to be
Illuminated somehow by the light I've left in me
I've nothing left to call it but my last attempt to say
The letters I was given when my person was a grave
Galatians 2:20
