One long breathe

Jaw clenched
Heart aches
Breath heavy
One long breathe

I hate that feeling

Almost pity my self-pity

But then I realize

I am lame in that moment

Eyes blank

Feel tired

Look around

One long breathe

Say it's not real
It wasn't supposed to be like this

Things are such amiss

Say it's not done

Your hand

Our failure

The past

One long breathe

At least we know

There's always tomorrow

I'm not who I used to be

Don't even like that guy

Many reasons

Countless seasons

Look ahead

One long breathe

I'm not that man anymore

I keep telling myself

I've run from so many

But can't run from myself

I've seen a miracle

I've seen a change

I've seen new life

And now I've seen life new

Jaw clenched
Stars above 
Breath easy
One long breathe

Time passes

Seasons change

Men grow old

And I'm not stuck to me anymore

I don't need to know the "When?"
Don't need the "Why?"
Life's so dry

When your always asking

And never listening
