Lyrics

Hanging above me like a bird of prey
The torments of my life
Following me each step of the way
While its shadow blinds my eyes
I cannot help looking back
To mistakes I've made, the courage that I lacked
So much I wish that I might begin again
Without a blemish attached to my name
But is it too late to break this clinging cover?
To leave this dead field, shut the gate and start over
Childhood illusions
Like flowers wither and fade
Our dreams are like betrayers
We ourselves have betrayed
And in the midst of this desert, I'm crying
Though I may be one of God's children, I feel like an orphan
Ragged with the scars of remorse
For I've known and caused such pain
Am I doomed to walk a branchless course?
Sing an endless refrain
Can one life really be enough
To make smooth what begins so rough?
So much I wish that I might begin again
Without a blemish attached to my name
But is it too late to break this clinging cover?
To leave this dead field, shut the gate and start over
To leave this dead field, shut the gate and start over
To leave this dead field, shut the gate and start over
Over, over, over
Over, over, start over
Over, over, start over
Over, over, start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
Start over
