A painful birth took place in my soul
I could see definitely see it all
These realizations chase me all the way
I don't know when they right and when they fail

Because I saw things in the twilight
The map is laid out there for me to see
I don't know yet what it means
But I will, I will always be free

(Now the wound is healed but the scab is fresh
And your behavior doesn't help)

Bradley was talking and I was scraping
His words bring back all that's dead
My fear of things failing between me and my aim
The night following the sun's rays

Because if I have to confront you, confront it
I love you so much I could say
But I'm getting mad today
don't know if it's at you or is it me.

I've already been to this
Lovers to friends and all in between
I just have not the strength anymore
I need to see **** clear.

Hold your pen close to your soul girl keep growing
Must know when the candles are blowing out
Must know when things are falling down
If they distract me from the light
Where the **** is the light
I'm sure it's in the arms of a man

(Every poem is born when you're lonely
You turn to paper in the absence of something else
When friends and lovers just not working
Gotta do a job within yourself.)

And if it has to die, I will hasten it
I have no time for playing games!
Maybe it's just an universal lesson
to live, taste more and cling a little less.

Who knows the ways?
