Something I hold onto
To help me let it go
Something that changes
To keep the status quo

Fuzzy lines and pointed questions
They get the worst of me
Maybe to forget what I remember
I need the memory

Color drains and drips from your face
Skies turn to grey and say “I’m sorry”
And as the rain falls it’s a sure thing
The lightning overhead lights up around me

Knees bent and face to the ground
What was I running from?
Don’t need to understand to believe
What else to do when He says “Come”?

Don’t hold your breath
Expectations always fail
What we thought we knew
Was anything but true in the end of the tale

We’re all searching for life
When it’s right here in Him
So many miss the mark
When it’s right there; it’s Him

Answers need questioning
We solved the mysteries before 
Before the world opened wider 
Afraid to step through the door

The things that are easiest to say
Are hardest to do
The things we do so easily
Are hardest to say.

You were a roped noose
I was a heart-shaped dagger
We were our demise.
