Take a second look
Take a second breath
I swear i told you it's not bad as you said
I've been wasting my years
Sacrificing tears at the alter
That doesn't get farther away
You say you gave a second try
And now i wonder why
I look myself in the eye
Because i never tried
To fulfill my presence
Or worse, these things just happen
Look me in the eye
It's alright
You took your hits in stride
So remember it's not another life, it's yours
And you, you get to want it
And do just what you said
I just can't wait to get you out of my head
Between myself and who i am
And what that i might be
And sometimes
It gets hard to see
That it's all a little ugly sometimes
You never know quite why
But sometimes i find
No matter how far i climb
That the levee breaks
And the quiver shakes
And the arrow fired
Returns desire
Unlike anything you've ever seen before
And it gives you a chance to go on once more
And it goes away, like an illusion
And leaves you right there, in your confusion
Soon
You turn to find
The eye you turned to look outside
Has been outside all along
You were very strong
