All the pieces hit the ground with a sick sound
Time frames moving in slow motion
Sifting through setting in as the smoke clears
Consequences marching in rotation
Got a feeling that this is gonna bruise
I'm pretty sure this is gonna be costly
Sit down ‘cause there's nothing left to do
Hands covering your head and you wish you could start again…
Fire comes and it burns the brush away
…rain comes down
Snow falling in a lifeless grey
…sun comes down
Something new comes cautiously from the dust
And spreads its limbs toward the heavens.
Colors bleed and they mix into a dull brown
The more you mix the more its getting darker
Heat rises and it leaves behind a luke-warm
Feel it go, feel a heart get harder
Losing something that you said you'd never lose
You trade it in for something that you can't stand
Let go now there's nothing left to do
Hands covering your head now you're ready to start again…
Fire comes and it burns the brush away
…rain comes down
Snow falling in a lifeless grey
…sun comes down
Something new comes cautiously from the dust
And spreads its limbs toward the heavens.
A second chance is all you have left.
Remember why you cling to this gift.
A new day, a new start, the world turns.
Sometimes you've got to crash before you learn.
