Grasping for those I love Holding on for dear life To the people who are good What is good? When those who you’re supposed to trust Betray What then? How do you move forward? How do I move forward? Dont lean into fear Lean into love Trust Hope But how. My world uprooted My rock tumbling down a cliffside What was good is bad, and what was bad is worse There is no black and white, no pure, no good, no bad, no right, no wrong Magnetic arrow north no longer It’s only direction driven by the wind The invisible map stripped away When the voice who has served as the conscience in my head My Jiminy Cricket The first one to teach me the difference between right and wrong Good and bad Does wrong How can i trust my inner voice? Pinocchio lost to his own devices Tumbling in darkness

Hold On
Grasping for those I love Holding on for dear life To the people who are good What is good? When those who you’re supposed to trust Betray What then? How do you move forward? How do I move forward? Dont lean into fear Lean into love Trust Hope But how. My world uprooted My rock tumbling down a cliffside What was good is bad, and what was bad is worse There is no black and white, no pure, no good, no bad, no right, no wrong Magnetic arrow north no longer It’s only direction driven by the wind The invisible map stripped away When the voice who has served as the conscience in my head My Jiminy Cricket The first one to teach me the difference between right and wrong Good and bad Does wrong How can i trust my inner voice? Pinocchio lost to his own devices Tumbling in darkness
