Sometimes I speak with a certainty conceived by a pain that has all but deserted me. And some nights there’s shame, and deservedly so… an unbearable weight, unnerving and cold… And I, I’m feel flawed (but I know I’m not broken) I’m feeling down (but determined to rise again) I’m feeling flawed… …but I’m not. I’m done being careless. I’m through with the reckless decisions I’ve made and the victim I’ve played. I’ll rise +from the ashes of the bridges I’ve burned. +up through rain clouds never to return here again. I’ll let the rain cover my tracks. If I can’t find my way, I can never come back here again. I’m feeling flawed… …but I’m not.

Hope In The Inkwell (Don’t Give Up)
