Old Ways

Some days I fly like a bird

Everything flows and love is a verb

Nothing is static, the breach gets birthed

By these old ways

Some days I fall from the sky

Shoot myself down when I fly so high

Trash my achievements, wish I could die

To these old ways

Wash away your past with warm tears

Let them fall from your eyes

Wash away your past with a laugh, dear

Your laugh can make us fly

Some days I put myself down

Question my purpose, design a new shroud

Feel like an actor who's faking new ground

In an old play

Some days you burst my balloon

Feel so dejected like I've come too soon

Can't walk the line between user and used

So I use you

Dear child, when you were born

I looked for signs arising from this storm

Dear child, I heard your call

You gave me back my heart

And I walked out the door

My God, I'm coming to you

The journey was hard but then we broke through

I really do move in mysterious ways

And so do you

All this fear

I can't find my truth here

All this fear

We will clear

We will clear

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la
