Disarray

i didnt know i was this strong

i underestimated myself all along

i didnt think id ever get used to the change

but all i did was blink my eyes and watch my life re arrange

 

and i have watched myself evolve into this

i thought id become a monster, someone meaningless.

maybe i crossed some bridges id never seen before

and maybe i didnt know it til id turned around and watched them fall.

 

theres no going back now

theres no turning back around

ive learned how to fight, when i want to cower and cry.

and ive learned wrong from right, in a foggy disarray

 

i cant say being confused is an excuse anymore.

because youve got to turn all the knobs till you find the unlocked door.

and i was so tired of searching around.

and i flew for miles in tears until my feet felt comfort on the ground
