show me the way now to higher ground

I’m writing down the truth that I found

I’m waiting for the sun to rise

for what’s dead to come to life 

not by strength or by might

let the truth go, by my side

this still feels like a million miles from here

looking at this, at this part of me

somehow else is there a way for us to be

I don’t see how I could get to that place

I don’t see how I could be what you need

I don’t accept your, your reality

I don’t accept this is how it has to be 

this is wearing thin

we are wearing thin

looking out at the land before me 

is this place just a memory

the time has come to say goodbye

will this be the last time

I’ve known this like nothing else 

am I losing part of myself

there’s more to go may I keep what’s behind

don’t forget the, the way things could be

do I want what it is I most need

this world doesn’t want how we’re meant to be

do I live like how it is I believe

let’s write our own rules

write our own rules now

love is remembered, it’s not forgotten
