In Retrospect

Oh God, it feels like I'm falling apart

Oh God, it feels like I'm falling apart

And I can't help but feel, I brought this on myself

Now my eyes are open wide

And as my pupils dilate, I see the reckoning

Try to settle the scales of fight or flight

I just can't balance the weight, I've reached the tipping point

The sands of time beckon me to yield my faith

But I keep asking myself

If I'm the final piece to this puzzle, why can't I find my place?

Coming round from a coma, when I wasn't asleep

Ask myself what the hell happened to the person I used to be

Things have changed on the outside, why am I stuck looking in?

We are the lost and insecure

We are the counter to your clause

Forever falling short, but not far off the mark

We are the hope you left behind

Make your stand, take the fall, play your part

You mean more to me than you could ever know

Than you could ever know

Oh god, am I falling apart?

Down, but not out

I'll stand up for myself, hold my head in the clouds

Drown in the drought

My lungs are flooded with reasons that I have to doubt myself

We are the lost and insecure

We are the voice you can't ignore

We are the sickness and the remedy

Unite in unison, just have a little faith in me

We are the lost and insecure

We are the lost and insecure

We are the counter to your clause

Forever falling short, but not far off the mark

We are the hope you left behind

Make your stand, take the fall, play your part

You mean more to me than you could ever know

I'm like a fire

Burning a path through water

Burning a path to you

You can see this through, just have a little faith in me

I'm living proof that it's never too late

Avoid the fork in the road, stick to the path you create

And when push comes to shove and you're ready to break

We can do this together because we're one and the same

Now three years on, so many things have changed

I guess I've been better, but I'm doing okay

I still feel like winter on a warm summers day

It does get easier with time, but it never goes away

Now three years on, and I've grown in so many ways

They sang my songs for you, they were my voice when I was afraid

The beauty in your message has helped to ease so much pain

It does get easier with time but it never goes away
