lyrics

Adlib, Iesha Green:
All things end
I think we’re going to be better off
this time around
this time around

Verse 1, Chuckie Campbell
If you listen close enough
you can hear it at a distance
unsure if it’s a secret or a prayer
when all the pain and the scars
come together in our hearts
I swear you can feel it in the air
and if you felt it in the air
then I know it’s in your dreams
on occasion when you wake
in a puddle of belief
I can see it in your eyes
coming in and out of sleep
heart pounding in the hollow of the deep
(Come alive...I’m)
indebted and dedicated
to healing heartache
I rise from desolate
delicate dark space
driven and determined
by pressure and heartbreak
I redefine the vision
of victims who find faith
and re-envision seeing myself
in the same way
the survivor of the events
that previously took shape
our forever is a mask
every mask is a mirror
to unmask my forever
I forgive, but remember

Chorus 1, Iesha Green:
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around

Verse 1, Chuckie Campbell
If you listen close enough
you can hear it at a distance
a mother who would die
to save her son
when all the pain and the scars
come together in his heart
he’s a son who would lie
to take his drugs
and, when his body in hearse
pulled away from the church
somewhere in-between
what we get and we prefer
left me so unsure
of the real and the absurd
do we accept the love
we think that we deserve
(Come alive...I)
remembered every second
and wrote it into a song
I imagine he’s somewhere to sing along
and I answer to this feeling
and deal with it at a cost
because our actions
are connected to our thoughts
and if the broken as adults
were once broken youth
and often the abuser
was once the abused
we all wear a mask
every mask is a mirror
in the cycle of abuse
hurt people, hurt people

Chorus x 2, Iesha Green:
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around

Breakdown, Chuckie Campbell:

I’m never dreaming but devoted
unfolding our broken moments
decoding forgotten voices
(because the way home is home)
beneath the breathing images
revisited repeatedly
reliving what it meant to me
(I check signs for signs)
I’m reminded yet divided
that those who committed violence
once were victims of the violent
(because hurt people, hurt people)
the played becomes a player
the bullied becomes a bully
the cycle repeats usually
(I check signs for signs)
In the cycle of abuse
those afflicted
become the very ones to inflict it
(and the way home is home)
I’m elated to be healing
and thinking let’s do it different
if you with me, let me hear it, ‘cause
(there’s no fear in love)

Chorus x 1, One Nation Choir:
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around

Chorus x 1, Iesha Green:
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around
All things end
then they begin again
I think we’re gonna be
better off, better off
this time around
