Departures

Today all colors are bleedin' Across the ocean I am sorry I couldn't stay How does it feel to own what you are? To unstitch your heart without causing a flood To fall but never ceasing to believe In light taking over darkness To breathe life in serenity If only I knew how to forgive If only I knew how to let go If only I knew how to own what I am Galaxies away I am riding the waves of the lost Lead this ship astray Make me hate you again Fear, trust, guilt, love In the grip of a coming storm I am sinking under the weight Of a troubled sun When bitterness conquered the heart And left us crawling in the cold Screaming worth a lifetime With a voice of a follower Always too soon, always too late Screaming worth a lifetime With a voice of a follower Always too soon, always too late Always in between If only I knew how to forgive If only I knew how to let go If only I knew how to own what I am If only I knew how to forgive If only I knew how to let go If only I knew how to own what I am
