lyrics

seven times seven times I’ve come to this place
so many times I’ve touched your skin, I know I remember your face
but this time, I’m finding it harder, harder than before:
stumbling blocks in my way, I’m met with hate and disdain

can I find you with my sixth sense?
can I find you in the balance?

the world I’m born into hasn’t got the time for me
no one wants to bide or think but act and speak anyway

finding you home and farther afield
I seek you at night and day will not yield
the path is unsure but certain am I:
content to walk till the day I die
you flash in my eyes and those I see
but future still holds your return to me

but where is the future? it lies in the past
along with the questions that never were asked
all I have gained, all I have lost:
lay there together discarded and tossed
away from the sea, the rivers to find
just as a level finds its own kind

this time, I’ll make the choices that matter
I won’t wait until it’s too late
I’ll take my hands from my eyes
and change; make a change

the more I split
my path in half
the further I have to go.
when will I
put down my knife
and let my life be whole?

no matter how fractured,
my resolve remains.
no matter your distance,
I will see you,
feel you,
see you inside me.
