I Can Get It Back

I Can Get It Back - Zack Hemsey

I see a ghost in a photograph

I feel that wave come up under me

I see myself in that other half

I feel that pain pull me underneath

I see the times that we'll never have

I hear the sighs of content we'd breathe

I feel the smile that I wish I had

But all these moments are projections of the past

Cuz a part of me died and a liveliness was lost when you passed

And a light in me dimmed as a certainty was slipping through my grasp

Now I'm picking up the pieces getting cut open by shards of broken glass

Well how long can this last

Missing is that purpose in my life

But I can get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back

I can get it back

I can get it back

I can get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back

I can get it back

I can get it back

I can get it back

I see no soul in the mirror

Only see signs of demise getting nearer

Time heals wounds is absurd as a theorem

But I can see above the sky's getting clearer

And though despair of things before will never leave

Although our past mistakes can never be retrieved

Way out in the distance is a vessel on the seas

And I'm a set a heading toward the sun

Cuz I believe that I can get it back

All that hope and that joy

That trust and that care

Those dreams of a boy

I can get it back

All that love and that worth

That touch of a flare

That feel of the earth I can get it back

That drive to extreme

That confidence to lead

That willingness to bleed I will get it back

Reassembled when I'm done

Depression on the run

As I come beating on these drums

This isn't gone

I can get it back

I can get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back

I can get it back

This isn't gone

This isn't gone

This isn't gone

This isn't gone

I can get it back

I can get it back

Battles with the mind and the timid stand off

Slightest bit of pain and those tender folk scoff

Choose the destination

But that bridge must be crossed

Guess the bottom line is we're cut from different cloths

Borders they divide but I'm inclined to cut across

Reach the outer limits then I cut away my loss

Continue toward the goal in sight no matter what the cost

Emboldened by this chance

I'm not afraid to get lost

Cuz now I'm pushing forward and nobody dare oppose

Now I'm moving faster while that ticking clock slows

And now I'm climbing higher like the ground can't hold

So I don't plan on stopping when this summit plateaus

I'm that invasion of the body by the soul

Sickened from the cold

But soon a certified whole

Never one to fight

But I just hit it on the nose

It took my spirit

But I got it back case closed

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

This isn't gone

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back

I can get it back get it back
